In some cases, however defects may occur and lead to poor strength of the composite. In this chapter, a finite element method has been developed to evaluate mechanical behavior of defective CNTs and graphene sheets. Stone-Wales defect (5-7-7-5) and vacancies in SWCNTs and graphene sheets with different hilarities were studied under axial load. The results show that CNTs and grapheme structures are sensitive to vacancies. However, the armchair grapheme structures have significant resistance to defect under tensile load. Present results are in good agreement with available literature. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014. date: 2014 publisher: Springer Verlag official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84927665000&doi=10.1007%2f978-3-319-07383-5_27&partnerID=40&md5=d35a97cb27eeef105af4cac686483f23 id_number: 10.1007/978-3-319-07383-5₂₇ full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Structured Materials volume: 54 pagerange: 383-390 refereed: TRUE issn: 18698433 citation: Mohammadpour, E. and Awang, M.
