AbstractThe order-disorder behavior of a Σ = 5 grain boundary was investigated using a two dimensional latice gas model and the cluster variation method. It is found that a disordered layer forms in the grain boundary region at temperatures significantly below theorder—disorder temperature for the bulk. Under certain assumptions for the pair interaction energies the model predicts grain boundary compositions different from the bulk.

ABSTRACTVarious modeling techniques have been used to study the structure of grain boundaries in ordered compounds, particularly Ni3Al. The techniques include computer simulation, group theoretical analysis and the cluster variation method for high temperature effects. A multiplicity of possible grain boundary structures was analyzed for different misorientations and grain boundary plane location. 1The influence of several alloy properties like atomic size differences and deviation from stochiometry on the occurrence of these different structures is analyzed. The implications of these results for grain boundary misorientation distribution, grain boundary plane location and faceting behavior are discussed and compared to experimental findings. The possibility of orderdisorder transitions in the grain boundary region is also discussed.

AbstractTemperature-composition phase diagrams of alloys are calculated by a new method combining (i) first principles total energy calculations (at T=0) for ordered structures, using the local density formalism, with (ii) finite-temperature statistical-mechanics approach (the Cluster Variation Method) to the solution of the multi-spin Ising model, using volume-dependent interaction energies obtained from (i). Novel features, including the appearance of metastable long-range ordered compounds at low temperatures are discovered.
