Liquid-phase thermodynamics and structures in the Cu-Nb binary system
TL;DR: In this article, an embedded atom method (EAM) interatomic potential is constructed to reproduce the main topological features of the experimental equilibrium phase diagram of the Cu-Nb system in both solid and liquid states.
Thermally Induced Interdiffusion and Precipitation in a Ni/Ni3Al System
Cheng Sun,Enrique Martínez,Jeffery A. Aguiar,Alfredo Caro,James A. Valdez,Kevin Baldwin,Y. Xu,Blas P. Uberuaga,Osman Anderoglu,Stuart A. Maloy +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the interdiffusion and precipitation behavior in a Ni/Ni3Al model system was investigated, and it was shown that Ni3Al intermetallic precipitates preferentially diffuse along the Ni-Ni 3Al interface, increasing the probability of precipitation.
Structural, elastic, and electronic properties of Fe3C from first principles
TL;DR: In this paper, the lattice parameters, elastic constants, vibrational properties, and electronic structure of cementite (Fe3C) were predicted using first-principles calculations within the generalized gradient approximation.
Role of electrons in collision cascades in solids. I. Dissipative model
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed model for the nonadiabatic coupling between ions and electrons in energetic ion-solid interactions over a wide range of energies in concentrated solid-solution fcc alloys of the $3d$ transition metals Ni, Co, Fe, and Cr is presented.
Molecular Dynamic Computer Simulation of Elastic and Plastic Behavior of Nanophase Ni
H. Van Swygenhoven,Alfredo Caro +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, molecular dynamics computer simulations of low temperature elastic and plastic deformation of Ni nanophase samples with several mean grain size in the range 3-5 nm are reported.
