Strain rate and temperature dependence of the tensile strength ofsingle-walled carbon nanotubes has been investigated with molecular dynamicssimulations. The tensile failure or yield strain is found to be stronglydependent on the temperature and strain rate. A transition state theory basedpredictive model is developed for the tensile failure of nanotubes. Based onthe parameters fitted from high-strain rate and temperature dependent moleculardynamics simulations, the model predicts that a defect free $\mu m$ longsingle-wall nanotub at 300K, stretched with a strain rate of $1%/hour$, failsat about $9 \pm 1%$ tensile strain. This is in good agreement with recentexperimental findings.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, recently submitted for publicatio
