We provide detailed background, theoretical and practical, on the specific heat of minerals
and mixtures thereof,'astro-materials,'as well as background information on common …

Variation of volume with temperature is a significant engineering consideration for numerous
applications. In addition, the molar volume is a central property along with the bulk modulus …

Abstract Knowledge of the liquidus is important for the design and processing of many
materials. For instance, deep eutectics are important for the design of metallic glasses, and …

A coupled thermodynamic/kinetic CALPHAD type modeling of the glass transition for a glass
forming unary substance is proposed. In this quantitative modeling, the vibrational …

A complete thermodynamic description of the Ca–O system is proposed including 3rd
generation modelling of crystalline CaO, liquid and amorphous CaO, and crystalline CaO 2 …

New descriptions of pure Al and liquid C were developed and used to describe the Al–C
system for the third generation of Calphad databases. The stable phases of the elements are …

The third-generation thermodynamic database that adopts the physics-based models over a
wide temperature range is being developed in an attempt to increase the predictability and …

Thermodynamic data for pure gold were critically assessed using an extended Einstein
model from 0 K for the crystalline FCC_A1 phase and a two state model for the liquid phase …

A new thermodynamic model based on the Einstein function with more physical significance
is used to describe the hcp, bcc, fcc, ω, liquid and amorphous phases for Ti and V from …

Abstract Proper descriptions of Topologically Closed-Packed (TCP) phases in
thermodynamic databases are essential to adequately design new alloys. Thus, the recently …
