Nonlinear Resonance Interaction between Conjugate Circumferential Flexural Modes in Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Figure 22

Contour plot of the total energy distribution Ẽ (η, θ, τ) of the conjugate modes (1,2), (1,2,c) over the SWCNT surface (η, θ). Forward travelling wave from θ = 0 to θ = 2π in the time range τ = (84.87, 85.17). (a) τ = 84.87, (b) τ = 84.93, (c) τ = 84.99, (d) τ = 85.05, (e) τ = 85.11, and (f) τ = 85.17.
