The Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin films is an important property. This paper focused to investigate the Youngs Modulus of Multilayered Ni/Cu Multilayered nanoThin Films under different condition by Molecular Dynamics Simulation. The NVT ensemble and COMPASS potential function were employed in the simulation. The multilayered nanothin film contained the Ni and Cu thin films in sequence. From simulation results, it is found that the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film is different at different lattice orientations, temperatures and strain rate. After experiments, it can be found that the Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film in the plane (100) is highest. As thickness of the thin film and system temperature rises, Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film is reduced instead. And, the strain rate increases, the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film will also increase.

Abstract The influence of graphene on dislocation movement and subsequent mechanical response of aluminum is investigated by the computational method of molecular dynamics simulation. A Lennard–Jones potential describing Al-C interaction was obtained through ab initio calculation. It was observed that the 2D graphene could reinforce Al matrix similar to the traditional Orowan mechanism. The Al/graphene interface first attract the gliding dislocation to reduce the system energy, which is unlike the grain boundary to repel gliding dislocations through pile-up mechanism. With the increase of stress, dislocation attracted and trapped at the front of graphene could glide along the interface and finally bypass it through climbing when graphene is orientated out of the shear plane. In addition, the strengthening ability of graphene is size dependent, showing a linear relationship between strength increment and graphene size.
