Abstract
We propose a multiscale method to study nanotube-based resonant oscillators. In the multiscale model, nanotubes are modeled via molecular dynamics, while the metal paddle is modeled as a rigid body. The molecular and continuum models are attached to each other through the interfaces on which carbon atoms are located. We employ the concepts of “virtual” atoms and bonds to effectively couple the molecular and continuum models. Using the proposed multiscale method, we investigate both linear and nonlinear characteristics of resonant oscillators. Effects of vacancy and temperature on mechanisms of oscillators are discussed.
