In this paper, the influence of van der Waals force on the wave propagation in viscoelastic double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) is investigated. The governing equations of wave motion are derived based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory and double-walled Timoshenko beam model. The effects of viscosity, van der Waals force, as well as size effects on the wave propagation in DWCNTs are clarified. The results show that effects of van der Waals force on waves in inner and outer layers of DWCNTs are different. Flexural wave (FW) in outer layer and shear wave (SW) in inner layer are sensitive to van der Waals force, and display new phenomena. This new finding may provide some useful guidance in the acoustic design of nanostructures with DWCNTs as basic elements.

In this paper, a nonlocal Flugge shell model is utilized to investigate the axial buckling behavior of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) under various boundary conditions. According to the nonlocal elasticity theory, the displacement field equations coupled by the van der Waals interaction are derived. The set of governing equations of motion is then solved by the Rayleigh–Ritz method. The present analysis can treat boundary conditions in a layer-wise manner. The effects of nonlocal parameter, layer-wise boundary conditions and geometrical parameters on the mechanical behavior of DWCNTs are examined. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations are performed to assess the validity of the results and also to predict the appropriate values of nonlocal parameter. It is found that the type of boundary conditions affects the proper value of nonlocal parameter.
