T-carbon, a new carbon allotrope, was initially predicted to exist in a theoretical study [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106 (2011) 155703] and successfully fabricated in recent experiment [Nat. Commun. 8 (2017) 683]. This work investigates the mechanical behaviors and structural evolution of T-carbon nanowires...
