The strength and toughness of materials are important for applications. A linear atomic
chain, carbyne, has been previously predicted to have the highest strength and toughness …

The continuous discovery of ultrahigh-modulus materials has increased the record for the
Young's modulus and the gravimetric Young's modulus. However, the theoretical bounds on …

Though linear atomic chains exhibit extreme properties, it is presently unclear how these
properties can be maximized by the choice of elemental composition. Considering that …

For the first time, dedicated stretching bond force constant (kr), and bulk modulus (BB) of
small boron nitride fullerenes (BNFLs) or BxNx cages (x= 12, 16, 20, 24, and 36) are …

High values of stretching bond force constants (kr) and Young's moduli (Y) for boron nitride
nanotubes (BNNTs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were determined and compared using …

In the present work a comparison of the electronic structures of the Linear carbon chains
(LCC) with Boron linear chains (BnH2 and BnH4) and boron–nitrogen linear chains …

To compare the stretching bond force constants kr of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) and
carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in armchair structures, using density functional theory (DFT), kr …

Determining and controlling the mechanical response of carbon nanomaterials under
different physical and chemical conditions is a crucial challenge for their implementation in …
