Natural Frequency of Rotating Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Considering Gyroscopic Effect
Authors
Abstract:
This paper investigates the bending vibration of rotating single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) based on nonlocal theory. To this end, the rotating SWCNTs system modeled as a beam with a circular cross section and the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory (EBT) is applied with added effects such as rotary inertia, gyroscopic effect and rotor mass unbalance. Using nonlocal theory, two coupled sixth order partial differential equations that govern the vibration of rotating SWCNTs are derived. To obtain the natural frequency and dynamic response of the nanorotor system, the equation of motion for the rotating SWCNTs are solved. It is found that there are two frequencies in the frequency spectrum. The positive rootintroduced as forward whirling mode, while the negative root represents backward whirling mode. The detailed mathematical derivations are presented while the emphasis is placed on investigating the effect of the several parameters such as, tube radius, angular velocity and small scale parameter on the vibration behavior of rotating nanotubes. It is explicitly shown that the vibration of a spinning nanotube is significantly influenced by these effects. To validate the accuracy and efficiency of this work, the results obtained herein are compared with the existing theoretical and experimental results and good agreement is observed. To the knowledge of authors, the vibration of rotating SWCNTs considering gyroscopic effect has not investigated analytically yet and then the results generated herein can be served as a benchmark for future works.

In the framework of the continuum shell theory, we analytically predict a new phenomenon: the weak localization of optical low-frequency oscillations in carbon nanotubes. We clarify the origin of the localization by means of the concept of the limiting phase trajectory and confirm the obtained analytical results by molecular dynamics simulations of simply supported carbon nanotubes. The perform...
full textCutting single-walled carbon nanotubes.
A two-step process is utilized for cutting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The first step requires the breakage of carbon-carbon bonds in the lattice while the second step is aimed at etching at these damage sites to create short, cut nanotubes. To achieve monodisperse lengths from any cutting strategy requires control of both steps. Room-temperature piranha and ammonium persulfate solu...
full textSubstrate-induced Raman frequency variation for single-walled carbon nanotubes.
We report on the monotonic Raman frequency shift and intensity variation when a laser spot moves along the same single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) for both the radial-breathing mode (RBM) and the G-band. Our substrates are Si wafers coated with thermal oxide, and trenches with widths of 1-80 mum are etched in the SiO2 by photolithography and reactive ion etching. SWNTs are grown by chemical v...
full textThermal conductivity of single-walled carbon nanotubes
We have measured the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity k(T) of crystalline ropes of singlewalled carbon nanotubes from 350 K to 8 K. k(T) decreases smoothly with decreasing temperature, and displays linear temperature dependence below 30 K. Comparison with electrical conductivity experiments indicates that the room-temperature thermal conductivity of a single nanotube may be comparable...
