We consider a discrete model of a graphene sheet with atomic interactions governed by a harmonic approximation of the 2nd-generation Brenner potential that depends on bond lengths, bond angles, and two types of dihedral angles. A continuum…
Bond stretching and angle bending force fields, appropriate to describe in-plane motion of graphene sheets, are derived using first principles' methods. The obtained force fields are fitted by analytical anharmonic energy potential…
In this paper, a continuum mechanics model of graphene is proposed, and its analytical solution is derived. Graphene is modeled as a doubly-periodic thin elastic plate with a hexagonal cell having a circular hole at the hexagon center.…
We report a molecular dynamics study on the tensile mechanics of graphene as gradually rotating the tensile direction from armchair to zigzag direction, covering the complete range of chiral directions which has never been explored so far.…
An atomistic to continuum model for a graphene sheet undergoing bending is presented. Under the assumption that the atomic interactions are governed by a harmonic approximation of the 2nd-generation Brenner REBO (reactive empirical…
We study the effect exerted by the electrons on the flexural phonons in graphene, accounting for the attractive interaction created by the exchange of electron-hole excitations. Combining the self-consistent computation of the phonon…
We use density functional theory to determine the equilibrium shape of graphene flakes, through the calculation of the edge orientation dependence of the edge energy and edge stress of graphene nanoribbons. The edge energy is a nearly…
Since graphene nanoribbons are thin and flimsy, they need support. Support gives firm ground for applications, and adhesion holds ribbons flat, although not necessarily straight: ribbons with high aspect ratio are prone to bend. The effects…

Graphene is the extreme material for molecular sensory and hydrogen storage applications because of its two-dimensional geometry and unique structure-property relationship. In this Letter, hydrogenation of graphene is discussed in the…
Continuum modeling of free-standing graphene monolayer, viewed as a two dimensional 2-lattice, requires specification of the components of the shift vector that acts as an auxiliary variable. If only in-plane motions are considered the…
We consider a model of Dirac fermions coupled to flexural phonons to describe a graphene sheet fluctuating in dimension $2+d$. We derive the self-consistent screening equations for the quantum problem, exact in the limit of large $d$. We…
We examine the fracture mechanics of tearing graphene. We present a molecular dynamics simulation of the propagation of cracks in clamped, free-standing graphene as a function of the out-of-plane force. The geometry is motivated by…
A new formula for elastic bending modulus of monolayer graphene is derived analytically from an empirical potential for solid-state carbon-carbon bonds. Two physical origins are identified for the non-vanishing bending modulus of the…

We study the vibrational properties of graphene under combined shear and uniaxial tensile strain using density-functional perturbation theory. Shear strain always causes rippling instabilities with strain-dependent direction and wavelength;…
Continuum modeling of a free-standing graphene monolayer, viewed as a two dimensional 2-lattice, requires specifications of the components of the shift vector that act as an auxiliary variable. The field equations are then the equations…
