title = "Effect of vacancy and stone-wales defects on the shear strength of carbon nanotube-polymer interfaces",
abstract = "In the present study interfacial characteristics of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and their composite with different types of defects are calculated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Although single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) are found to have ultra-high stiffness and strength, an enormous scatter is also observed in available experimental results due to the presence of nanoscale defects such as vacancy and Stone-Wales defects. The current paper investigates the influences of Stone-Wales (S-W) and vacancy defects on the mechanical properties of composites containing defective CNTs.",
