Atomistic Study of the Mechanical Properties of One-Dimensional Nanomaterials
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
The mechanical properties of Au nanowires under a uniaxial load are investigated by molecular-dynamics simulation. The modified embedded-atom method (MEAM) potential is employed to calculate the interactions between Au atoms. Ten kinds of model nanowires with different cross-sections and axis directions are prepaired. The structural dependence and size effect of the Young’s moduli of Au nanowires are discussed.
