Metallic nanowires show great potential for applications in miniaturization of electronic devices due to their extraordinary mechanical strength and electrical properties. Experimental investigations of these properties are difficult due to their size and complications in performing experiments at such length scales. Computational techniques based on classical molecular dynamics simulations (using LAMMPS) provide an effective mean to understand the mechanical deformation behaviour of such nanowires with considerable accuracy and predictability. In the present investigation, we have discussed the deformation behaviour of Au nanowires due to tensile loading using classical molecular dynamics simulations (LAMMPS). The effect of strain rate and temperature on the yield strength of the nanowire has been studied in detail. The deformation mechanisms have also been discussed.
