The aim of this research is to develop a FE model based on the modified Morse interatomic potential to evaluate axial Youngâ��s modulus of nanotubes. The novelty of the model lies on the use of ANSYSâ��s beam element with non-linear capability, i.e., element type BEAM188 is used to evaluate SWCNTâ��s mechanical properties. In the present modeling work, an individual carbon nanotube (CNT) is simulated as a frame-like structure and the primary bonds between two nearest-neighboring carbon atoms are treated as 3D beam elements. The beam element properties are determined via the concept of energy equivalence between molecular dynamics and structural mechanics using modified Morse potential. The calculated mechanical properties show good agreement with existing works. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2012. date: 2012 publisher: Springer Verlag official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85039891533&doi=10.1007%2f978-3-642-22700-4_22&partnerID=40&md5=8ce1f56dfe42448ce4338a93a767d116 id_number: 10.1007/978-3-642-22700-4₂₂ full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Structured Materials volume: 16 pagerange: 369-381 refereed: TRUE issn: 18698433 citation: Mohammadpour, E. and Awang, M.
