Abstract
Expressions for the higher order elastic constants are derived using t he sublattice displacements to the second degree in strains. These exp ressions together with the expressions for the second and third order elastic constants have been used to obtain the higher order elastic co nstants and the pressure derivatives to second order elastic constants of hexagonal zirconium. The results obtained are compared with the re ported values. The second pressure derivatives of zirconium are also r eported.
