A numerical evaluation of the influence of defects on the elastic modulus of single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes

Finite element models of single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in their perfect and fundamental forms (zigzag and armchair) were constructed. Then, after obtaining the mechanical properties of perfect carbon nanotubes, three types of imperfections, i.e., doping with Si atoms, carbon vacanc...
