  In this work, we report on the mechanical responses and fracture behavior of
pristine and defected monolayer 1T-Titanium Disulfide using classical molecular
dynamics simulation. We investigated the effect of temperature, strain rate and
defect ratio on the uniaxial tensile properties in both armchair and zigzag
direction. We found that monolayer TiS2 shows isotropic uniaxial tensile
properties except for failure strain which is greater in zigzag direction than
armchair direction. We also observed a negative correlation of ultimate tensile
strength, failure strain and young's modulus with temperature and defect ratio.
Results depicts that strain rate has no effect on the young's modulus of
monolayer TiS2 but higher strain rate results in higher ultimate tensile
strength and failure strain.
