| dc.description.abstract | We studied aluminium-rich Ti-Al (Ti32Al68 and Ti40Al60) binary alloys that were composed of TiAl and
TiAl2 lamellar microstructures. The law of mixtures was employed in calculating the theoretical
Young’s moduli. The lattice parameters of the alloys showed that both were tetragonal crystals. In the
computational study, we made use of our modified method for the stress–strain calculation of elastic
constants. The alloys at the respective chemical compositions were modelled by creating titanium (Ti)
supercells, which were then doped by replacing some of the Ti atoms with aluminium atoms. The values
of elastic moduli were verified by the ab initio calculation in this work, which showed a perfect agree ment. The Pugh’s ratio | en_US |
