The Effect of Strain Rate on the Deformation Processes of NC Gold with Small Grain Size

The strength of nanocrystalline (NC) metal has been found to be sensitive to strain rate. Here, by molecular dynamics simulation, we explore the strain rate effects on apparent Young’s modulus, flow stress and grain growth of NC gold with small size. The simulation results indicate that the apparent...
