In previous studies, only the vdW interaction between adjacent two layers was considered and the vdW interaction between the other two layers was neglected. The results show that the vdW interaction cofficients are dependent on the change of interlayer spacing and the radii of tubes. With increase of radii the vdW coefficients approach a constant value. The numerical results show that the effect of vdW interaction on the critical strain for a doublewalled CNT is negligible when the radius is large enough for the both the cases of before and after buckling.}, journal = {International Journal of Chemical and Molecular Engineering}, volume = {5}, number = {10}, year = {2011}, pages = {854 - 856}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/14889}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/58}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 58, 2011}, }
