The spherical indenter has impinged on a circular region of the array of multiwalled nanotubes

From the paper:
"Shell buckling of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes using nanoindentation", Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 87, 103109, 2005 by
J.F. Waters, P.R. Guduru, M. Jouzi, and J.M. Xu (Division of Engineering, Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island 02912) and T. Hanlon and S. Suresh (Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139)

The next slide shows an enlarged view of some of the buckled nanotubes.
