主要研究了三壁碳纳米管在多重边界约束条件下的振动特性. 基于Euler 梁模型将三壁碳纳米管模拟成三重相合梁系统, 其中管间通过范德华力 (van der Waals force) 相合, 但内管、中管、外管处于不同的边界约束中, 并研究了FFC (free-free-clamped) 型多重边界约束对 三壁碳纳米管振动的影响. 结果表明, FFC 型多重边界约束会导致三壁碳纳米管共振频率的降低, 尤其在低阶振动模态上; 同时, 这种影响会随着碳纳米管长度的增加而减弱.
Vibration characteristics of triple-walled carbon nanotubes (TWCNTs) with multiple boundary constraints are studied. TWCNTs are modeled as a coupling Euler beam system in which the inner, middle and outer tubes are simulated as 3 single beam, respec- tively. They are coupled through van der Waals interaction. Besides, different boundary conditions are imposed on the three beams. The effect of FFC multiple boundary con- straints on the vibration characteristics of TWCNTs are analyzed. The results show that FFC multiple boundary constraints can reduce resonant frequencies of TWCNTS, espe- cially on the lower modes. Meanwhile, it is also found that this effect will be weakened with the increase of the length of TWCNTs.
