Nanoporous gold (NPG) is an ideal model system for the study of size effects at the nanoscale, since the ligament size can be precisely tailored within the nanometer to micrometer range. In this work, we study the deformation behavior of NPG using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. We report on uniaxial compression tests using experimentally informed real-size atomistic samples, which are reconstructed from electron tomography datasets. By comparing the results of these simulations with simulations on geometrically constructed samples with average ligament size and porosity equal to the experimental samples, we study the influence of morphology and topology on the deformation behavior of NPG. The influence of surface-induced-stress on the critical resolved shear stress of NPG is evaluated by comparing the real-size samples and samples scaled-down by different factors. Additionally, the deformation mechanisms are studied in detail. The results provide qualitative insights in the fundamental deformation mechanisms not readily observable in in-situ mechanical tests.
