ABSTRACTThe method of molecular-dynamics is employed to simulate and investigate the deformation of metallic nanowires under tensile strain. The interactions between metallic atoms are calculated by using the embedded-atom method potential. A model nanowire is preliminarily equilibrated at a specified temperature. Then, the uniform uniaxial extension of the nanowire is performed. The thinning process of a metallic nanowire is observed in the sequential snapshots of its morphological change.

To avoid unexpected environmental mechanical failure, there is a strong need to fully understand the details of the oxidation process and intrinsic mechanical properties of reactive metallic iron (Fe) nanowires (NWs) under various aqueous reactive environmental conditions.
