摘要
Molecular dynamics simulation is utilized to study the effects of grain size and temperature on the mechanical properties of quasi-two-dimensional (2D) nanocrystalline Cu with grain sizes of 3-8 nm under uniaxial tensile tests. Our results show that the grain growth is caused by the grain rotation and leads to strain hardening at 300 K for a grain size of < 5 nm and at 100 K for a grain size of <4 nm. For a grain size of <= 7 nm, the inverse Hall-Petch relation was observed in the yield stress. The Young's modulus for the quasi-2D system is higher than that for the three-dimensional (3D) system.
