The surface eigenstress model is further developed here to quantitatively predict the size-dependent mechanical properties of NWs and results in analytic formulas. Molecular dynamics(MD) simulations are conducted to study the size-dependent mechanical of [100], [110] and [111] Ni and Si nanowires within the temperature range of 100–400 K and the MD results verify perfectly the newly developed surface eigenstress model.展开更多
