摘要
We have investigated buckling phenomena under axial compression for multiwall carbon nanotubes with the same outer diameter with different wall thicknesses obtained by the extraction of inner shells. According to the Euler's buckling model described by the continuum model, Young's moduli of the nanotube before and after the extraction of the inner shells were evaluated to be 0.77 and 0.80TPa, respectively. This good agreement between the two values indicates that the classical continuum model is effective for describing the mechanical behaviors of multiwall nanotubes.
