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

Table 2

Natural frequencies of the radial breathing mode (m = 0, n = 0) of the free-free SWCNT of Table 1 for different values of radius R and same value of aspect ratio L/D. Comparisons between Sanders-Koiter elastic shell theory (SKT) (present model) and experimental resonant Raman spectroscopy (RRS) [11].
