Equation of state and elasticity of FeSi
نویسندگان
چکیده
[1] FeSi may be one of the main products of the reaction between molten iron and mantle silicates. We use both the Local Density Approximation (LDA) and the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) to Density Functional Theory (DFT) to analyze the structural behavior of FeSi and to determine its elastic properties up to high pressures. According to our calculations, at lowermost mantle pressure conditions, FeSi is in the B2 (CsCl-type) structure. The B20-B2 transition takes place at 30 GPa in LDA and 40 GPa in GGA and is characterized by a 0.35 g/cm shift in density.

Elzaki transform method for finding solutions to two-dimensional elasticity problems in polar coordinates formulated using Airy stress functions
In this paper, the Elzaki transform method is used for solving two-dimensional (2D) elasticity problems in plane polar coordinates. Airy stress function was used to express the stress compatibility equation as a biharmonic equation. Elzaki transform was applied with respect to the radial coordinate to a modified form of the stress compatibility equation, and the biharmonic equation simplified t...

متن کاملThe equation of state of CsCl-structured FeSi to 40 GPa: Implications for silicon in the Earth's core
[1] We have measured the compressibility of CsClstructured FeSi to 40 GPa by X-ray powder diffraction using synchrotron radiation. A third order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state fit to the experimental data yields V0 = 21.74 ± 0.02 Å, with a K0 of 184 ± 5 GPa and K 0 0 = 4.2 ± 0.3. The measured density and elastic properties of CsClFeSi are consistent with silicon being a major element in the ...
