A review is given on the basic concepts and fundamental framework of the theory of
elasticity for quasi-crystalline materials, including some 1D, 2D, and 3D quasi-crystals. The …

Abstract Single quasicrystals of Al 70 Pd 21 Mn 9 were plastically deformed by 25% under
compression at 750 C. Both these samples as well as control samples of as-grown and heat …

By using the molecular dynamics method, the tensile and elastic mechanical properties of Al

Abstract Al [sbnd] Pd [sbnd] Mn single-quasicrystals have been plastically deformed at
temperatures between 730 and 800° C up to different strain values and analysed in the …

Results of mechanical micro-and nanotesting of single-quasicrystalline phases in the Al–Co–
Ni-, Al–Pd–Mn-and RE–Mg–Zn-systems (RE= Y, Ho or Dy) are reported. Particular …

Based on the quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics scales, the elastic and tensile
mechanical properties of Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystals (QCs) are investigated by utilizing the first …

For a two-dimensional binary tiling model quasicrystal, the full set of (zero temperature)
elastic constants is determined. It is found that the elastic energy is a perfect quadratic form …
