Bending buckling of single-walled carbon nanotubes by atomic-scale finite element
Carbon nano- tubes are popular effective futuristic new materials, as they are 1000 times stronger than steel. This paper is the result of collaboration with Arizona State University and University of Illinois. The paper is was the first one to considering atomistic finite element buckling and has attracted 18 SCI citations on bending of carbon nano-tubes world-wide including USA, UK, China, Iran, Korea, Australia, Czech, Taiwan, Finland, and Portugal . I was invited to make a semi-plenary lecture on the topic in the World Congress in Computational Mechanics (WCCM2012) in Brazil in front of about 3000 participants.
