The effect of the hollow cylindrical geometry of nanotubes is discussed, followed by an examination of proper ways to compare energy dissipation at the nano and micro levels. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.en1879-105020132731ElsevierCarbon nanotubesNanocompositesFracture toughnessInterfacial strengthChemieJournal Article10.1016/j.compscitech.2013.04.017Other
