  A data driven computational model that accounts for more than two material
states has been presented in this work. Presented model can account for
multiple state variables, such as stresses, strains, strain rates and failure
stress, as compared to previously reported models with two states. Model is
used to perform deformation and failure simulations of carbon nanotubes and
carbon nanotube/epoxy nanocomposites. The model capability of capturing the
strain rate dependent deformation and failure has been demonstrated through
predictions against uniaxial test data taken from literature. The predicted
results show a good agreement between data set taken from literature and
simulations.
