Abstract

In this work, the mechanical propertis of a gold and magnesium (alloys) single-crystal nano-beam have been studied with molecular dynamics/CPMD and ab-initio calculations. The tensile test of the nano-beam will be done thorugh LAMMPS and the required potential for such simulation will be obtained through application of ab-initio calculation in VASP and ABINIT. Both elements are intended to be used for biomedical applications such as dental implants.
