The Mechanical Properties and Elastic Anisotropies of Cubic Ni3Al from First Principles Calculations

Ni3Al-based superalloys have excellent mechanical properties which have been widely used in civilian and military fields. In this study, the mechanical properties of the face-centred cubic structure Ni3Al were investigated by a first principles study based on density functional theory (DFT), and the...
