Link between structural and mechanical stablility of fcc- and bcc-based ordered Mg-Li alloys

The first principles pseudopotential calculations based on the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) form of generalized gradient approximation (GGA) within density functional theory (DFT) have been utilized to investigate the structural and elastic properties of cubic-based Mg-Li alloys. The heats of format...
