Defects can occur in various forms with significant effect. With high levels of such defects can lower the tensile strength by up to 85{\^A} 1. In general, three types of defects are reported in the CNTs 2, 3. {\^A}{\copyright} 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.}, author = {Awang, M. and Mohammadpour, E. and Muhammad, I.
