With the growing interest in the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes, molecular dynamics simulations have been deployed to understand the effect of hydrogen functionalization on the mechanical aspects of both armchair and zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). Hydrogen atoms are attach...
