In order to investigate the strength characteristics and buckling behavior of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) incorporating another molecules, we have performed molecular dynamics simulation on CNTs including C60. Buckling occurs from the layer near C60 in a CNT have a large cross section. Then, we investigated the buckling behavior on CNTs including several C60. Although the strength characteristics of the CNT including four C60 increased, we cannot find an obvious reason of the increase in buckling strength due to the number of C60.
