Understanding the mechanical behavior of gold Nano-discs can help better utilize such nanostructures. In this study, the effect of tensile velocity on the mechanical behavior of gold Nano-discs was studied using the moleculardynamics simulation method. The stress-strain curve and variations in the Young’s modulus, yield stress, failure stress,and elongation of the gold Nano-discs were studied under pure tensile loads at strain rates of 0.6, 0.06, and 0.006 Å/Ps
