Self-Consistent Properties of Carbon Nanotubes and Hexagonal Arrays as Composite Reinforcements
Papers | 05 May 2010 | Contributor(s):: R. Byron Pipes
A self-consistent set of relationships is developed for the physical properties of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCN) and their hexagonal arrays as a function of the chiral vector integer pair, (n,m). Properties include effective radius, density, principal Young’s modulus, and specific Young’s...
