The vibrational spectrum and specific heat of tantalum are calculated on the basis of the lattice dynamical model of Sharma and Joshi. The calculated specific heat and the corresponding equivalent Debye temperature show fair agreement with the experimental data of Clusius and Losa.

We have investigated the thermal and allied properties of Tb0.5Sr0.5CoO3 for the temperature range 1K≤T≤300K using the Modified Rigid Ion Model (MRIM). The calculated bulk modulus, specific heat, and other thermodynamic properties obtained from MRIM have presented proper interpretation of the experimental data, for Sr ions doped TbCoO3 . In addition, the results on the cohesive energy (φ), Debye temperature (θD) and Gruneisen parameter (γ) are also discussed.

The vibration spectrum of the nickel lattice has been calculated using the simple de Launay method with values for the effective force constants determined from published experimental data for the elastic constants. The density-of-states curve reproduces the same general features found by Birgeneau et al. (1964) using a fourth-neighbor model. The Debye temperature at 0 °K is found to be 474 °K in good agreement with the experimental value of 468 °K, and the calculated variation of the Debye temperature with temperature agrees quite well with that deduced from measurements of the specific heat.

We have applied the Rigid Ion Model (RIM) to study the cohesive and thermal properties of binary intermetallic BeB 2 and TiB 2. The paper reports the calculated results on cohesive energy (ϕ), compressibility (β), molecular force constant (f), Restrahalen frequency (ν0), Debye temperature (Θ D ) and Gruneisen parameter (γ) for the temperature range 50 K ≤ T ≤ 300 K and the effect of van der Waal interaction on these properties are also shown. Our results on Debye temperature are closer to the experimental data. In addition, we have computed the specific heats for BeB 2 and TiB 2 and compared them with the available experimental data.

We have investigated the elastic and thermal properties of Sr 1-x Ca x RuO 3(0≤x ≤1) perovskite using a modified rigid ion model (MRIM). The trend of variation of our computed specific heat in the temperature range 1 K ≤ T ≤ 1000 K are in good agreement with corresponding experimental data for almost all the compositions (x). The specific heat found to increase with temperature from 1 K to 300 K, while they decrease with concentration (x) for these perovskite ruthenates. Besides, we have reported the thermal properties, like thermal expansion (α), molecular force constant (f), Reststrahlen frequency (υ), cohesive energy (ϕ), Debye temperature (θD) and Gruneisen parameter (γ).

We have systematically investigated the effect of phonons on elastic, thermal and cohesive properties for rare earth gallates RGaO3 (R = La, Ce, Nd, Pr, Sm, Gd) by means of a Rigid Ion Model after modifying its framework to incorporate the van der Waals interactions. Besides that, we have calculated the temperature dependence of the specific heat for the present orthogallates. The results on bulk modulus, Debye temperature and specific heat reproduce well with the available experimental data.

The accuracy of predictions of phonon thermal boundary conductance using traditional models such as the diffuse mismatch model (DMM) varies depending on the types of material comprising the interface. The DMM assumes that phonons, undergoing diffuse scattering events, are elastically scattered, which drives the energy conductance across the interface. It has been shown that at relatively high temperatures (i.e., above the Debye temperature) previously ignored inelastic scattering events can contribute substantially to interfacial transport. In this case, the predictions from the DMM become highly inaccurate. In this paper, the effects of inelastic scattering on thermal boundary conductance at metal/dielectric interfaces are studied. Experimental transient thermoreflectance data showing inelastic trends are reviewed and compared to traditional models. Using the physical assumptions in the traditional models and experimental data, the relative contributions of inelastic and elastic scattering to thermal boundary conductance are inferred.
