Ab initio and atomistic study of generalized stacking fault energies in Mg and Mg–Y alloys

Magnesium–yttrium alloys show significantly improved room temperature ductility when compared with pure Mg. We study this interesting phenomenon theoretically at the atomic scale employing quantum-mechanical (so-called ab initio ) and atomistic modeling methods. Specifically, we have calculated gene...
