This dependence is used to evaluate forces that are necessary for the relative telescopic motion of walls and to calculate the shear strength of DWNT for the relative sliding of walls along the nanotube axis and for their relative rotation about this axis. The possibility of experimental verification of the obtained results is discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-30T16:10:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "61.48.De", "62.25.-g" ], "keywords": [ "ab initio calculations", "walls shear strength", "carbon nanotubes", "density functional method", "dependence" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1134/S1063785009070232", "journal": "Technical Physics Letters", "year": 2009, "month": "Jul", "volume": 35, "number": 7, "pages": 666 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009TePhL..35..666B" } } }
