This leads to build-up of internal stresses and to extreme pressures acting on encapsulated materials or on the carbon cores of the nanostructures. We formulate a model which relates the build-up of internal stresses to the point defect dynamics in graphene shells. Calculations are performed for the special case of irradiated CO.
