摘要
Stability of ground-state and higher-energy phases of Cu and Al encountered along the tetragonal (bcc-fcc), trigonal (bcc-simple cubic-fcc) and hexagonal (bcc-hcp) displacive transformation paths is studied by ab initio electronic structure calculations (ultra-soft pseudopotentials, VASP code) and by many-body semi-empirical interatomic potentials developed by Mishin et al. Comparison of these two calculations provides a means for further analysis of the efficacy of the potentials in atomistic modeling of more complicated configurations, such as extended defects.
