## Abstract We calculate the mechanical and electron‐transport properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) under uniaxial tensile strain with first‐principles density functional theory. Our calculations reveal that armchair‐ and zigzag‐shaped edges decrease and increase the tensile strength of GNR, r
