The mechanical behavior of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), being fixed at both ends under uniaxial tensile loading, is investigated via the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with the Tersoff interatomic potential. It is found that Young's modulus of the MWNTs is in the range between 0.85 and
