On Stress-Strain Responses and Young's Moduli of Single Alkane Molecules, A Molecular Mechanics Study Using the Modified Embedded-Atom Method

Sasan Nouranian, Steven R. Gwaltney, Michael I. Baskes +2

In this work, molecular mechanics simulations were performed using a modified embedded-atom method (MEAM) potential to generate the stress-strain responses of a series of n-alkane…
