Abstract
Silicon carbide nanotubes (SiCNTs) have generated significant research interest due to their potential use in the fabrication of electronic and optoelectronic nanodevices and biosensors. The exceptional chemical, electrical and thermal properties of SiCNTs are beneficial for their application in high-temperature and harsh-environments. In view of the limited thermal stability of carbon nanotubes, they can be replaced by silicon carbide nanotubes in reinforced composites, developed for operations at high temperatures. However, fundamentally theoretical studies of the mechanical properties of the silicon carbide nanotubes are at an early stage and their results are still insufficient for designing and exploiting appropriate nanodevices based on SiCNTs and reinforced composites. In this context, the present study deals with the determination of Young’s and shear moduli of non-chiral single-walled silicon carbide nanotubes, using a three-dimensional finite element model.
