Cross-sectional deformation of multiwalled carbon nanotubes under isotropic radial pressure is investigated in a realm of continuum elastic approximation. The nanotube we assumed is subjected to the embedment into an elastic medium and stiffener insertion into the core cavity. Combination of the two reinforcement manipulations is found to cause kaleidoscopic mode changes in the radial corrugation, in which the cylindrical walls exhibit wavy patterns along the circumferential direction. Physical consequences of the diverse corrugation patters are also discussed.
