Long-range Finnis–Sinclair potentials

Adrian P. Sutton, Jinlin Chen · 1 Mar 1990

Finnis–Sinclair potentials are developed for computer simulations in which van der Waals type interactions between well separated atomic clusters are as important as the description of metallic bonding at short range. The potentials always favour f.c.c. and h.c.p. structures over the b.c.c. structure. They display convenient scaling properties for both length and energy, and a…

Intrinsic plasticity or brittleness of metallic glasses

John J. Lewandowski, W. H. Wang, A.L. Greer · 1 Feb 2005

Abstract The intrinsic plasticity or brittleness of crystalline metals correlates with the ratio of the elastic shear modulus μ to the bulk modulus B; when the ratio μ/B exceeds a critical value, the metal is brittle. Sufficient data on elastic moduli and toughness are now available to permit an assessment for metallic glasses. We find…

EELS analysis of vacuum arc-deposited diamond-like films

S. D. Berger, David R. McKenzie, Phil Martin · 1 Jun 1988

Abstract Electron energy-loss spectroscopy measurements have been made on amorphous diamond-like carbon films produced by condensing the plasma stream from a filtered vacuum arc. The results are compared with spectra from diamond, graphitized carbon and amorphous carbon. Although the energy-loss spectra reveal the presence of a small quantity of sp2-bonded material in the diamond-like film,…

An explanation of the indentation size effect in ceramics

S.J. Bull, T. F. Page, Elizabeth H. Yoffe · 1 Jun 1989

Abstract A quantitative model is proposed to explain the indentation size effect (ISE) often observed in the hardness response of hard brittle materials, namely that hardness is observed to increase with decreasing indentation size. The model is based on a mixed elastic/plastic materials deformation response whereby plastic deformation occurs in a discrete manner progressively to…

Transmission electron microscope investigations of the structure of copper precipitates in thermally-aged Fe—Cu and Fe—Cu—Ni

P. J. Othen, M. L. Jenkins, George Smith et al. · 1 Dec 1991

Abstract Conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) experiments have been carried out on thermally-aged binary Fe 1·30 wt% Cu and ternary Fe 1·28 wt% Cu 1·43 wt.% Ni alloys to study the structure of small (7–15 nm) copper precipitates in the α-Fe matrix. The experiments show that the precipitates have a…
