Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have performed compression and bending simulation on defective multi-walled CNTs using molecular dynamics method, and discussed buckling properties of CNTs. In order to discuss relationships between buckling behavior and local deformation resistance, we have also evaluated atomic elastic stiffness corresponding with the second-order derivatives of atomic energy. As a result, second smallest eigenvalue of atomic elastic stiffness in some atoms changes to negative before buckling behavior. This suggests that we can predict the onset of local buckling by the same criterion in different CNT models.
