Elastic strain of freely suspended single-wall carbon nanotube ropes
We have induced large elastic strains in ropes of single-wall carbon nanotubes, using an atomic force microscope in lateral force mode. Freely suspended ropes were observed to d...
Load transfer and deformation mechanisms in carbon nanotube-polystyrene composites
Multiwall carbon nanotubes have been dispersed homogeneously throughout polystyrene matrices by a simple solution-evaporation method without destroying the integrity of the nano...
Tensile Loading of Ropes of Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes and their Mechanical Properties
The mechanical response of 15 single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) ropes under tensile load was measured. For 8 of these ropes strain data were obtained and they broke at strain ...
VI. The phenomena of rupture and flow in solids
In the course of an investigation of the effect of surface scratches on the mechanical strength of solids, some general conclusions were reached which appear to have a direct be...
Polymorphic transitions in single crystals: A new molecular dynamics method
A new Lagrangian formulation is introduced. It can be used to make molecular dynamics (MD) calculations on systems under the most general, externally applied, conditions of stre...
