The physical and mechanical properties of Co3(Al,W) with the L12 structure have been investigated both in single and polycrystalline forms. The values of all the three independent single-crystal elastic constants and polycrystalline elastic constants of Co3(Al,W) experimentally determined by resonance ultrasound spectroscopy at liquid helium temperature are 15~25% larger than those of Ni3(Al,Ta) but are considerably smaller than those previously calculated. When judged from the values of Poisson’s ratio, Cauchy pressure and Gh (shear modulus)/Bh (bulk modulus), the ductility of Co3(Al,W) is expected to be sufficiently high. Indeed, the value of tensile elongation obtained in air is as large as 28 %, which is far larger than that obtained in Ni3Al polycrystals under similar conditions.

AbstractSingle-crystal elastic constants of Co3(Al,W) with the cubic L12 structure have been experimentally measured by resonance ultrasound spectroscopy at liquid helium temperature. The values of all the three independent single-crystal elastic constants and polycrystalline elastic constants of Co3(Al,W) experimentally determined are 15~25% larger than those of Ni3(Al,Ta) but are considerably smaller than those previously reported. Two-phase microstructures with cuboidal L12 precipitates being well aligned parallel to <100> and well faceted parallel to {100} are expected to form very easily in Co-base superalloys because of the large value of E111/E100 and cij of Co3(Al,W). This is indeed confirmed by experiment. Values of yield stress obtained for both [001] and [¯123] orientations of L12/fcc two-phase single crystals moderately decrease with the increase in temperature up to 800°C and then decrease rapidly with temperature above 800°C without any anomaly in yield stress. Slip on {111} is observed to occur for both orientations in the whole temperature range investigated.

The structural and elastic properties of B2 ScAl doped with Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Tc, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag and Cd elements are studied by using first-principles calculations. The calculated elastic coefficients of pure ScAl are consistent with other theoretical results. The results of elastic constants indicate that all the ScAl-based alloys discussed are mechanically stable. The bulk modulusB, shear modulusG, Youngs modulusY, Pugh ratioB/Gand Cauchy pressure (C12-C44) are investigated. It is found that the addition of Ru that prefers Al site in ScAl can increase the stiffness of ScAl and improve its ductility.

AbstractTwo classical criteria, by Pugh and Pettifor, have been widely used by metallurgists to predict whether a material will be brittle or ductile. A phenomenological correlation by Pugh between metal brittleness and its shear modulus to bulk modulus ratio was established more than 60 years ago. Nearly four decades later Pettifor conducted a quantum mechanical analysis of bond hybridization in a series of intermetallics and derived a separate ductility criterion based on the difference between two single-crystal elastic constants, C12–C44. In this paper, we discover the link between these two criteria and show that they are identical for materials with cubic crystal structures.

In this paper, the mechanical properties and minimum thermal conductivity of ZnZr, Zn2Zr, Zn2Zr3, and MgZn2 are calculated from first principles. The results show that the considered Zn-Zr intermetallic compounds are effective strengthening phases compared to MgZn2 based on the calculated elastic constants and polycrystalline bulk modulus B, shear modulus G, and Young’s modulus E. Meanwhile, the strong Zn-Zr ionic bondings in ZnZr, Zn2Zr, and Zn2Zr3 alloys lead to the characteristics of a higher modulus but lower ductility than the MgZn2 alloy. The minimum thermal conductivity of ZnZr, Zn2Zr, Zn2Zr3, and MgZn2 is 0.48, 0.67, 0.68, and 0.49 W m−1 K−1, respectively, indicating that the thermal conductivity of the Mg-Zn-Zr alloy could be improved as the precipitation of Zn atoms from the α-Mg matrix to form the considered Zn-Zr binary alloys. Based on the analysis of the directional dependence of the minimum thermal conductivity, the minimum thermal conductivity in the direction of [110] can be identified as a crucial short limit for the considered Zn-Zr intermetallic compounds in Mg-Zn-Zr alloys.

The values of all the three independent single-crystal elastic constants and polycrystalline elastic constants of Co3(Al,W) experimentally determined by resonance ultrasound spectroscopy at liquid helium temperature are 15~25% larger than those of Ni3(Al,Ta) but are considerably smaller than those previously calculated. When judged from the values of Poisson’s ratio, Cauchy pressure and ratio of shear modulus to bulk modulus (Gh/Bh), the ductility of Co3(Al,W) is expected to be sufficiently high. In the yield stress-temperature curve, a rapid decrease and an anomalous increase in yield stress is observed in the low and intermediate (1000-1100 K) temperature ranges, respectively. The former is concluded to be due to the solid-solution hardening effect while the latter is attributed to thermally activated cross-slip of APB-coupled a/2<110> superpartial dislocations from octahedral to cube slip planes.

We have investigated the elastic and thermal properties of Sr1-xCdxCoO3 (0=x=0.1) probably for the first time by means of modified rigid ion model (MRIM). In this paper, we present the second order elastic constants (SOECs) and other elastic properties like Bulk modulus (B), Young's modulus (Y), Shear modulus (G), ̠̹̿̓̓̿̾˷̓˰̱̹͂̈́̿˰˸σ˹˼˰̵̜̱̽˷̓˰̵̵̱̱̀͂̽̈́͂˰˸m, l), transverse, longitudinal, ˰̵̷̵̱̱͆͂˰̵͇̱͆˰̵̼̳̹͉͆̿̈́˰˰˸υt, υl˼˰υm) and Anisotropy parameter (A). Here, the SOECs for Sr1-xCdxCoO3 compounds are positive and satisfy the generalized criteria for mechanically stable crystals: (C11-C12) > 0, (C11+2C12) > 0 and C44 > 0 which confirm that Sr1-xCdxCoO3 (0=x=0.1) belong to metallically bonding materials.

Ultrasonic techniques have been used extensively to measure the anisotropic elastic properties of calcified tissue [1–4]. Yoon and Katz [3] have derived the equations relating the elastic constants to the technical moduli: Young's modulus, shear modulus, and the bulk modulus. In order to make these calculations they assumed that bone was transversely isotropic (hexagonally symmetric). Abendschein and Hyatt [1] demonstrated that there was a good correlation between the longitudinal modulus (E3) of bone experimentally measured with ultrasound and mechanical techniques. Some investigators have even used these techniques to determine the different mechanical properties of pathological bone (osteopetrotic, osteoporotic) [4].

ABSTRACTElastic properties, thermal expansion and deformation behavior of Cr5Si3 with the D8m structure were investigated using single crystals. From the values of Cauchy pressures as well as the ratio of the polycrystalline bulk modulus (B) to shear moduls (G) estimated from single-crystal elastic constants (cij), deformation behavior of Cr5Si3 is expected to be relatively brittle compared to Mo5Si3 with the same crystal structure. However, plastic deformation of Cr5Si3 is confirmed above 900 ~ 1100 °C depending on the loading axis orientations.

First-principles calculations for CdSe and CdTe nanostructures were carried out to study their mechanical properties and band structure under the uniaxial pressure range of 0 to 50GPa. It was presumed that the CdSe and CdTe nanostructures exist in the zinc-blende phase under high pressure. The mechanical properties, such as elastic constants, bulk modulus, shear modulus and Young?s modulus, were explored. Furthermore, Cauchy pressure, Poisson?s ratio and Pugh?s criterion were studied under high pressure for both CdSe and CdTe nanostructures, and the results show that they exhibit ductile property. The band structure studies of CdSe and CdTe were also investigated. The findings show that the mechanical properties and the band structures of CdSe and CdTe can be tailored with high pressure.
