Mechanical Hardness and Elastic Stiffness of Alloys: Semiempirical Models

Published

Author(s)

D G. Clerc

Abstract

An atomic-levellmechanical hardness model that is based on screened electrostatics and elastic shear (SEES) is generalized to single-phase substitutional annealed alloys, and a semiempirical method is dervied to quantify elastic property composition effects in single-phase binary substitutional alloys.
