Abstract  Unrelaxed energies for Cu (001) twist grain boundaries (GBs) have been calculated using Modified Analytical Embedded Atom Method (MAEAM). The results show that, except zero energy at  0° (perfect crystal), a small cusp exists at the twist angle of 36.87° corresponding to $\varSigma=5$, which agrees with experimental results. For other misorientations, the GB energies keep almost constant even for a twist angle as small as 1.94°. Homogeneous expansion and that perpendicular to the GB plane result in obvious decrease of energy, especially the latter.
