.... In their study, it is shown that “all three elastic shell models are in excellent agreement (with relative error less than 5%)” with a molecular dynamics simulation (see Ref. 10 ) for radial breathing vibration modes of CNTs. Later, the same authors, Wang et al. ( 11 ), investigated the radial breathing modes...

..., neon, and krypton, are considered as atoms in the environment surrounding a CNT, which interact with the CNT through the vdW interactions. A CNT is initially deformed to a shape that is close to the mode shape of a flexural vibration mode of the tube, mostly the first mode shape, by manually...
