& nbsp;Comprehensive molecular dynamics tensile test simulations have been performed to study the delamination processes of seven different grain boundaries / cleavage planes ( sigma 1{111}, sigma 3{111}, sigma 5{10 0}, sigma 7{111}, sigma 9{411},sigma 11{311}, and R{100}/{411}) containing a helium bubble. Combinations of a variety of conditions are explored including different strain rates, system dimensions, bubble density, bubble radius, bubble pressure, and temperature. We found that in general, grain boundaries absorb less energies with decreasing strain rate but increasing bubble areal density, bubble pressure, bubble radius, and temperature. The propensity of grain boundary delamination is sensitive to grain boundary type: The random grain boundary R{100}/{411} is one of the most brittle boundaries whereas the sigma 1{111} cleavage plane and the sigma 3{111} twin boundary are two of the toughest boundaries. The sorted list of grain boundary fracture vulnerability obtained from our dynamic tensile test simulations differs from the one obtained from our decohesion energy calculations, confirming the important role of plastic deformation during fracture. Detailed mechanistic analyses are performed to interpret the simulated results. Published by Elsevier B.V.
