Based on the theory of Tersof- Brenner force feld, the energy relationships between the carbon-carbon bond and the beam model are obtained, and the stifness parameters of the beam are determined. By applying the present model, the Young’s moduli of the single-walled carbon nanotubes with diferent tube diameters are determined. And the present results are compared with available data.展开更多
