Generalized stacking fault energy in magnesium alloys: Density functional theory calculations

The generalized stacking fault energies of magnesium and their alloys have been calculated using density functional theory. It is shown that the deformation tendency caused by partial dislocations emission varies with alloying elements. Three slip systems have been considered: (0 0 0 1)[1 1 2 0], {1...
