Abstract
The adiabatic elastic constants were determined for niobium and for its alloys containing 1.4, 3.6, and 6.0 at.% zirconium. The c11, c12, and c44 constants as well as the shear constant C′ = (1/2)(c11 − c12) and the bulk modulus were tabulated between 4.2 and 290 K. The unusual temperature dependence of the shear constant c44 found in niobium was also observed in the alloys. The Debye temperatures were computed from the constants at 4.2 K.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
