Effect of van der Waals forces on axial buckling of a double-walled carbon nanotube

An elastic model is presented to study infinitesimal buckling of a double-walled carbon nanotube under axial compression. A simple formula is derived for the critical axial strain, which clearly indicates the role of the van der Waals forces between the inner and outer tubes characterized by two par...
