Young's Modulus of Graphene Based on Variation Principle and Energy Conservation

Abstract:

Tensile strain in x-direction for monolayer graphene with carbon-circles is considered based on variation principle and energy conservation. The relations between the Young’s modulus in x-direction and the number of carbon-circles of graphene are obtained. The results show that the Young’s modulus of graphene in x-direction is independent of the number of carbon-circles in x-direction, but it increases with the increasing number of carbon-circles in y-direction and finally comes to the constant.
