The model parameters are carefully evaluated by integrating the experimental data of thermodynamic properties, phase equilibrium and theoretical calculation of formation energies of different point defects. The evaluated Gibbs energies of the compounds reasonably agree with that estimated from EMF experiment and ab initio calculation. The calculated phase relationships in the Cu-In-Se system are in accord with the experimental phase diagrams. The obtained standard enthalpy of formation of CulnSe2 is close to that reported in the literatures.展开更多

The defects on surfaces and edges cause further weakening with various effects depending on defect type, size, position and orientation,while the edge dimples are the most influential. For γ-TiAl rods with surface dimples, dislocations nucleate from an edge of the rod when dimples are small, dimple dislocation nucleation occurs only when the dimples are larger than a strain rate dependent critical size. The dislocations nucleated upon [001]tension are super dislocations with Burger vectors 〈011] or 1/2 〈 112] containing four 1/6 〈 112 〉 partials. The effects of surface scratches are orientation and shape sensitive. Scratches parallel to the loading direction have little influence, while sharp ones perpendicular to the loading direction may cause crack and thus should be avoided. This simulation also shows that, any type of surface defect would lower strength,and cause crack in some cases. But some may facilitate dislocation nucleation and improve ductility of TiAl if well controlled.展开更多
