“…Indeed, for the special case of Ni-Si alloy, Garnier et al 28 have showed an interesting result that the derivatives of migration barriers with respect to volumetric strain ∂E m /∂ v is a constant for all types of atomic jumps in the system. Since the migration barriers have good linear dependences on the volumetric strain v in a larger strain range than that for L AB 28,29 , we use the following expression instead of Eqn.…”
