Short summary
This investigation presents a good application of wave propagation approach in the arena of CNTs vibrations. Finally, it is concluded that the presented CSM method is an alternative best choice to examine the overall vibration behavior of SWCNTs. The present investigation may be helpful in study of MWCNTs vibrations like considering aspects of high frequency oscillators and mechanical sensors.
