Second, let me point to a recent article, a collaborative effort between Weiqiang Ding, then a student in my group and now an assistant professor at Clarkson, Zaoyang Guo, then a postdoctoral fellow with Brian Moran at Northwestern, and now an assistant professor at the University of Glasgow, and myself, that addresses what we believe could be a weakness in terms of the analysis in the aforementioned work on nanobeam mechanics by the Lieber group.
