Here we provide an appraisal of the Poisson's ratios (υ) for natural elements, common
oxides, silicate minerals, and rocks with the purpose of searching for naturally auxetic …

Brillouin spectroscopy is an optical technique that allows one to determine the directional
dependence of acoustic velocities in minerals and materials subject to a wide range of …

In this work, we present the parametrization of Ca–O/H interactions within the reactive force
field ReaxFF, and its application to study the hydration of calcium oxide surface. The force …

In the present research paper, we have proposed a novel EOS, which is based on the
concepts of finite strain theories for predicting the thermo elastic properties of various …

The present investigation aims to study the high-pressure dependence up to 65.2 GPa of the
bulk modulus, Vickers hardness, mass density, Grüneisen parameter, Debye temperature …

Although tricalcium aluminate (C3A) is one of the most important components of Portland
cement, neither its reactivity nor its elastic moduli tensor have been fully determined yet. This …

The elasticity of minerals is central to our understanding of the structure and properties of the
Earth, and other planets. In the last half-century, and in particular within the last 15 years …

The structural, electronic and mechanical properties of alkaline earth metal oxides MO (M=
Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) in the cubic (B1, B2 and B3) phases and in the wurtzite (B4) phase are …

In the present work we used the experimental relative volume unit cell and the elastic
stiffness constants measured by Speziale et al.(Journal of Geophysical Research, Vol …

Previously measured in situ x-ray diffraction is used to assess the development of internal
elastic strains within grains of a sample of polycrystalline cobalt plastically deformed up to a …
