Abstract

Thanks to their superior properties, the interest on nanostructures has
increased. Among the nanostructures, carbon nanotubes have an important place. In
this study, the free vibration of Carbon Nanotubes is investigated. CNT is
modeled as a beam. Four different cross-sections is selected such as circular,
rectangular, triangular and quadratic 
for use in the solution. The frequency values of the first five modes of
these 4 different cross-sections with the same area have been gained by using
Euler-Bernoulli Beam Theory for simply supported boundary condition. The
results are compared. In this study, it is aimed to understand how the mode
number and cross-section change the frequency values.

Keywords
