Nanotechnology Now – Press Release: Nanotube fibers stand strong –
Home > Press > Nanotube fibers stand strong -- but for how long? Rice scientists calculate how carbon nanotubes and their fibers experience fatigue Rice University researchers found that cyclic loading of nanotube fibers leads to strain ratcheting that can eventually lead to the failure of the fiber.
