In Silico Assembly And Nanomechanical Characterization Of Carbon Nanotube Buckypaper

Carbon nanotube sheets or films, also known as 'buckypaper', have been proposed for use in actuating, structural and filtration systems, based in part on their unique and robust mechanical properties. Computational modeling of such a fibrous nanostructure is hindered by both the random arr...
