Abstract: | The mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of boron carbide under a-axis and c-axis uniaxial compression are investigated by ab initio calculations based on the density functional theory.Strong anisotropy is observed.Under a-axis and c-axis compression,the maximum stresses are 89.0 GPa and 172.2 GPa respectively.Under a-axis compression,the destruction of icosahedra results in the unrecoverable deformation,while under c-axis compression,the main deformation mechanism is the formation of new bonds between the boron atoms in the three-atom chains and the equatorial boron atoms in the neighboring icosahedra. |
