In this supplement we present a short derivation of dynamical equations of thin elastic shell in the framework of modified nonlinear Sanders-Koiter theory, and their relationship with the dynamics of one-dimensional oscillatory chain.
New phenomenon of a weak energy localization of optical low-frequency oscillations in carbon nanotubes (CNT) is analytically predicted in the framework of continuum shell theory. This phenomenon takes place for CNTs of finite length with medium aspect ratio. The origin of localization is clarified by means of the concept of Limiting Phase Trajectory, and the analytical results are confirmed by the MD simulation of simply supported CNT.
