The Poisson’s ratios of a single layered graphene sheet and singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are computed using an improved equivalent
structural mechanics model where the bond angle variations are modeled by the
flexible connections of framed structures. The accuracy of the results given by the
present model is evaluated by comparing the predicted results with the experimental
data and the theoretical and computational results reported in the literature. It is
shown that the Poisson’s ratios given by the present computational model agree
with the experimental data. The present result shows that the Poisson’s ratios of
both graphene and SWCNTs are chirality depend.
