S. Chantasiriwan et F. Milstein, EMBEDDED-ATOM MODELS OF 12 CUBIC METALS INCORPORATING 2ND-ORDER AND 3RD-ORDER ELASTIC-MODULI DATA, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 58(10), 1998, pp. 5996-6005
An embeded-atom method (EAM) formulation that can reproduce identicall
y the empirically determined second-order and third-order elastic modu
li is employed in constructing the EAM models of 12 cubic metals (Ag,
Al, Au, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mo, Na, Nh, Ni, and Rb). The models yield phase
stabilities, pressure-volume curves, and phonon-frequency spectra tha
t are in generally good agreement with experiments.
