Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotube (VA-CNT) arrays/turfs are a new class of nanomaterial that possess excellent mechanical, electrical and thermal properties and promise tremendous potential for widespread applications in several areas of engineering. This has triggered an utmost need to understand the behaviors of these nanomaterials to explore and realize their full potential to be able to efficiently design and implement new structures and devices. The approach here is based on Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME), linking material models at nanoscale, mesoscale and...
