Multi-shell gold nanowires under compression
The simulation presented here shows that multi-shell gold nanowires after large deformations recover their cylindrical forms, as well as initial radii and lenghts. A similar result (i.e, that large bending deformations without breaking are possible) was recently obtained experimentally for molybdenum nanowires .
