Temperature effect on nanoporous gold under uniaxial tension and compression

Nanoporous gold (NP-Au) is of great interest to researchers due to its high surface area; and accordingly, the wide range of applications that the material can be utilized for especially those where high temperature is involved. Therefore, the effect of temperature on NP-Au is studied by performing Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations at temperatures between 300 K and 700 K. Moreover, an Arrhenius type formulation is proposed to modify existing...
