Carbon nanotubes and carbon nanofibers have long been investigated for applications in
composite structural materials, semiconductor devices, and sensors. With the recent well …

Spurred by the discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991 and the subsequent nanotechnology
revolution, there has been a marked increase in the volume of scientific and engineering …

Carbon nanotubes, with their extraordinary mechanical and unique electronic properties,
have garnered much attention in the past five years. With a broad range of potential …

Since their discovery more than a decade ago, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have held
scientists and engineers in captive fascination, seated on the verge of enormous …

This paper investigates the nonlinear vibration of the piezoelectric nanobeams based on the
nonlocal theory and Timoshenko beam theory. The piezoelectric nanobeam is subjected to …

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have become one of the most intensely studied
nanostructures because of their unique properties. The inherent physical properties of …

This paper studies resonant frequencies and the associated vibrational modes of an
individual multiwall carbon nanotube embedded in an elastic medium. The analysis is …

This paper is concerned with the use of the Timoshenko beam model for free vibration
analysis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Unlike the Euler beam model, the …

This letter studies the promising application of carbon nanotubes as nanoresonators. Both
single-and double-walled carbon nanotubes are considered and the significant difference in …

The bending behaviour of systems of straight elastic beams at different scales is investigated
by the well-posed stress-driven nonlocal continuum mechanics. An effective computational …
