A lattice dynamical model that assumes short range pairwise forces effective up to second nearest neighbours and electron–ion interaction on the lines of Bhatia is considered to study the crystal dynamics of fcc metals. The authors consider an appropriate value of the screening parameter and the band structure effects have been introduced in a satisfactory manner in the present calculations. The volume force is averaged over the whole Wigner–Seitz sphere. The ionic lattice is in equilibrium in a medium of electrons. The present theory has been satisfactorily applied to compute dispersion curves, Debye characteristic temperatures, and temperature dependence on the Debye–Waller factors of thorium.

Graphs of monovacancy formation energy ( ) versus the parameter, , of Ashcroft's empty-core model potential (AECMP) and nine different exchange and correlation functions (ECF) are shown for two different group-IIa divalent fcc metals (Ca and Sr) and seven group-VIII divalent fcc metals in an active valence state (γ-Fe, β-Co, Rh, Ir, Ni, Pd and Pt). The criterion used is that is greater than the Bohr radius. There is a systematic increase and decrease in the fitted value of , and the calculated value of , respectively, in going from one ECF to other, as follows: Sham<K-K<G-V<Kle<Harr<V-S<Hub<Tay<M-D for group-IIa face-centered cubic metals and K-K<G-V<Sham<…..<Tay<Hub<M-D for group-VIII face-centered cubic metals; with a slight variation in between. It should be noted that the inherent simplicity of AECMP makes it difficult to have a universal parameter for all types of atomic property calculations.

History of loading is the result of interaction of the material microstructure evolution and the loading conditions. The present work aims at an investigation of the behavior in face-centered cubic (FCC) metals under loading with a strain rate jump at different stages. In order to describe the behavior of FCC metals under loading we propose a mathematical model. This model is based on a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and realized as software.

Recent studies have shown the presence of voids in several face-centered cubic metals after neutron irradiation at elevated temperatures. These voids were found when the irradiation temperature was above 0.3 Tm where Tm is the absolute melting point, and were ascribed to the agglomeration of lattice vacancies resulting from fast neutron generated displacement cascades. The present paper reports the existence of similar voids in the body-centered cubic metals tungsten and molybdenum.

Molecular Dynamics (MD) are now having orthodox means for simulation of matter in nano-scale. It can be regarded as an accurate alternative for experimental work in nano-science. In this paper, Molecular Dynamics simulation of uniaxial tension of some face centered cubic (FCC) metals (namely Au, Ag, Cu and Ni) at nano-level have been carried out. Sutton-Chen potential functions and velocity Verlet formulation of Noise-Hoover dynamic as well as periodic boundary conditions were applied. MD simulations at different loading rates and temperatures were conducted, and it was concluded that by increasing the temperature, maximum engineering stress decreases while engineering strain at failure is increasing. On the other hand, by increasing the loading rate both maximum engineering stress and strain at failure are increasing.
