In this paper, we have used density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) and Pseudo-potential method to calculate the phonon spectrum, phonon density of states (DOS), specific heat capacity and mechanical properties of (5,5) armchair and (9,0) zigzag Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs). Our calculations show that Young’s modulusfor (5,5) and (9,0) nanotubesare higher than 1TPa. We have also ...

In this study the intermolecular potential energies of some environment-friendly industrial HFC refrigerants were obtained through the inversion method which is based on the corresponding states principle. These potentials were later employed in calculation of transport properties (viscosity, diffusion, thermal conductivity and thermal diffusion factor) of some binary and ternary refrigerant mi...

This paper proposes an interesting approach for estimating the parameters of nonlinear diffusion models with discretely sampled data. The parameter estimates are obtained by maximizing an approximate likelihood function that is obtained by a Monte Carlo importance sampling method. As the authors point out, the elements of their approach are not substantially new. In particular, the idea of appr...

The electronic and structural properties of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) interacted with 4-amino phenyl-azobenzene were theoretically investigated by using the hybrid DFT (hybrid-density functional theory) calculations. The amount of thermodynamic parameters of this reaction in the gas and aqueous phase suggesting thermodynamic favourability for adsorption of 4-amino phenyl-azobenzene ...

Spin-polarized electronic and transport properties of Armchair GraphdiyneNanoribbons (A-GDYNR) with single vacancy (SV), two types of configurations fordouble vacancy (DV1, DV2) and multi vacancy (MV) defects are studied by nonequilibriumGreen’s function (NEGF) combined with density functional theory (DFT).The results demonstrate that the A-GDYNR with the SV has the lowe...
