Abstract:The paper deals with the calculations of heat capacity of quasicrystalline decagonal Al69Co21Ni10 and icosahedral Al63Cu25Fe12 quasicrystalline phases of Al–Co–Ni and Al–Cu–Fe alloys, respectively. According to the Gruneisen law, heat capacity is an energy characteristic, which reflects the phases’ resistance to failure. For calculations of the heat capacity, structure of quasicrystalline phases is considered in the model representation of anisotropic crystals. As a result, it is found that the heat ca… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
