Surface stress on the effective Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio of isotropic nanowires under tensile load

A method based on conventional finite element analysis is proposed to simulate nanowire tensile behavior. The surface elasticity in nanowires is converted to equivalent Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio for realizing the finite element analysis. The stress and strain distribution of tensile nanowi...
