Effects of Wavenumber and Chirality on the Axial Compressive Behavior of Wavy Carbon Nanotubes: A Molecular Mechanics Study

Figure 6

Eigenvalues corresponding to the first (C-shaped), the second (S-shaped), and the fourth (initial waveform) eigenmodes of Zigzag_wavy2 model as a function of the axial compressive strain; the inserted figure schematically illustrates the first, second, and fourth eigenmodes of the Zigzag_wavy2 model.
