The all-electron full-potential linearized muffin-tin orbital method, by means of quasi-harmonic Debye model, is applied to investigate the elastic constant and thermodynamic properties of body-centered-cubic tantalum (bcc Ta). The calculated elastic constants of bcc Ta at 0 K is consistent with the previous experimental and theoretical results. Our calculations give the correct trends for the pressure dependence of elastic constants. By using the convenient quasi-harmonic Debye model, we refined the thermal equations of state. The thermal expansivity and some other thermal properties agree well with the previous experimental and theoretical results.

Structural, electronic, elastic and mechanical properties of ScM (M[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Au, Hg and Tl) intermetallic compounds are studied using the full potential-linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method based on the density functional theory (DFT), within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and the local density approximation (LDA) to the exchange-correlation approximation energy as implemented in the Wien2k code. The ground state properties including lattice parameters, bulk modulus and elastic constants were all computed and compared with the available previous theoretical and experimental results. The lattice constant was found to increase in contrast to the bulk modulus which was found to decrease with every substitution of the cation (M) starting from Au till Tl in ScM. Both the electronic band structure and density-of-states (DOS) calculations show that these compounds possess metallic properties. The calculated elastic constants ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] confirmed the elastic stability of the ScM compounds in the B2-phase. The mechanical properties and ductile behaviors of these compounds are also predicted based on the calculated elastic constants.

AbstractThe thermophysical properties of diamond, a metastable material at room temperature, are difficult to measure at high temperatures. These properties are of interest for testing equation of state and interatomic potential models. Here we utilize a geometrical lattice transformation, one dimensional lattice dynamical theory, and the principle of corresponding states to calculate the elastic constants of diamond over an extended temperature range.
