ABSTRACTFirst principles total energy local density method have addressed the problems of (i) bonding, cohesion and phase stability and (ii) the role of ternary additions, anti-phase boundaries (APB's) and other faults in determining the structural, electronic and mechanical properties of aluminum intermetallic alloys. A key goal has been to attempt to understand, at the electronic level, fundamental quantities that may be related to the crucial brittleness vs. ductility issue in high temperature Ni and Ti and other aluminides. Other contrasts between observed ductility properties of related systems (e.g., NiAl and RuAl) are related to their differing electronic and bonding properties, particularly the nature of p-d hybridization and the directional properties of their electronic charge distrubutions - especially for states near the Fermi energy.

AbstractWe discuss the underlying atomistic mechanism for experimentally observed large tensile ductility in various strongly ordered B2 intermetallic compounds. First-principles calculations demonstrate that all of the compounds exhibit little energy differences between the B2, B27 and B33 phases. These calculations relate observations of ductility in YAg, YCu and ZrCo to shape-memory materials including NiTi. One transformation pathway between the B2 and B33 phases establishes a connection between this phase competition, and stacking faults on the {011}B2 plane. The low energy of such a stacking fault will lead to splitting of the b=<100> dislocations into b/2 partials, observed in ZrCo, TiCo, and in the B19' phase of NiTi. Calculations demonstrate that this pathway is competitive with the traditional pathway for NiTi.

AbstractWe consider the anisotropies due to coherency strains and the inilioliogcliotis stratlus associated with misfit dislocations, both of which give rise to anisotropy through maguctostrictive coupling. Coherency strains can give rise to anl apparent surface anisotrnpy due to the decrease in coherency strain with the film thickness. This anisotropy is comparable in magnitude to that observed experimentally for Fe [110] epitaxial thiut films on W [110]. The strain field associated with misfit dislocations produces a. surface anisotropy which is also comparable in magnitude to experimentally observed anisotropies. Dislocatioms along the inplane [001] and [110] directions both produce the same preferred direction of maguctization orientation.
