It is found that the ratio of lattice parameter c to a keeps almost constant with a value of 1.02 under the pressure from 0 to 20 GPa, which agrees well with the experimental results. With the pressure increasing from 20 to 45 GPa the values of c/a decrease almost linearly from 1.02 to 0.99. These calculated results indicate under low pressure the variation rate for a-axis is almost the same to that for c-axis, but under higher pressure the variation for a-axis is smaller than along e-axis. Through the quasi-harmonic Debye model, the equation of state (EOS) of TiAI intermetallies, as well as the thermal expansion and heat capacity at various pressures and temperatures are also studied.展开更多

Samples from consolidated alloys were analyzed by XRD for the determination of lattice parameters. Using these lattice parameters, the mechanical properties of the alloys were calculated theoretically with WIEN2k and EMTO programs, respectively. The elasticity moduli of the experimentally produced alloys were compared with the theoretical calculation results. The calculated mechanical properties of A13Sc phase and A1-Sc alloys were discussed to determine the optimum Sc content of Al-Sc alloys. It may be concluded that the Sc content should be the maximum about 1.0%, much more Sc addition could not improve the mechanical properties of the alloys.展开更多
