- Abstract
- In this paper a modification of the classical Weibull statistics is applied to nanostructures. A comparison is presented of "nanoscale" versus classical Weibull statistics in treating recent experimental results on the fracture strength of C nanofibers and nanotubes, and WS2 nanotubes. "Nanoscale" Weibull moduli of 3.8 for electrospun and then heat-treated carbon nanofibers, 2.7 for arc-discharge synthesized multiwalled carbon nanotubes, 1.8 for chemical vapor deposited multiwalled carbon nanotubes, and 3.0 for multiwalled WS2 nanotubes, are deduced.
