Mechanical Characterisation of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Heterojunctions: Numerical Simulation Study

Abstract: The elastic properties of single-walled carbon nanotube heterojunctions were investigated using conventional tensile, bending and torsion tests. A three-dimensional finite element model was built in order to describe the elastic behaviour of cone heterojunctions (armchair–armchair and zigzag–zigzag). This comprehensive systematic study, to evaluate the tensile, bending and torsional rigidities of heterojunctions, enabled the formulation analytical methods for easy assessment of the elastic properties of hetero… Show more

“…This Special Issue, comprised of a total of five research articles, is dedicated to recent developments in the modelling and numerical simulation of the mechanical properties of graphene sheets [ 1 ]; CNTs and their complex structures [ 2 , 3 ], such as heterojunctions [ 4 ]; and, to conclude, boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) [ 5 ], on which, among other N-CNTs, strong research efforts have been produced so far. The first study by Wang et al [ 1 ] deals with the molecular dynamic (MD) simulation of the Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) nanoindentation test performed on a single-layer wrinkled graphene sheet to extract its mechanical properties.…”

“…The research article of Pereira et al [ 4 ] is dedicated to correctly describing the deformation behaviour of SWCNT heterojunctions (HJs), whose structure can be understood as that of two SWCNTs connected by an intermediate region. Therefore, a systematic characterisation of the mechanical properties of armchair–armchair and zigzag–zigzag SWCNT HJs was performed.…”
