Comment on "On the tensile strength distribution of multiwalled carbon nanotubes" [Appl. Phys. Lett. 87, 203106 (2005)]

In a recent letter, Barber, Andrews, Schadler, and Wagner, Appl. Phys. Lett. 87, 203106 (2005). indicated that Weibull-Poisson statistics could accurately model the nanotube tensile strength data, and then concluded that the apparent strengthening mechanism in a multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) g...
