Roll up animation

You can select from the listed chiral indices. This small animation then cuts the unit cell from a graphene sheet and rolls it up in a smooth way. This is of course not the reallistic way of preparing nanotubes, it is just for fun. The size of the animation can be up to 3MB, it may take a while until it is fully loaded.
