keywords = {A three-dimensional finite element (FE) model for armchair and zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is proposed. The development model is based on the assumption that carbon nanotubes subjected to loading; behave like space-frame structures. The bonds between carbon atoms are considered to be as connecting load-carrying members; while the carbon atoms act like the joint of members. To generate the FE model; nodes are positioned at the site of carbon atoms and the bonds between them are modeled using 3D elastic beam elements. The elastic moduli of beam elements are determined by linking the methods of molecular dynamics and continuum mechanics. In order to demonstrate the performance of the FE model; the effects of tube diameter and wall thickness on the elastic moduli of SWCNTs are investigated.},
