Parameters of the elastodynamic state of dodecaborides of rare-earth metals

The mechanical and thermal properties of the crystal lattice are considered as functions of three Mie-Gruneisen parameters. With the relations derived here a number of parameters of the elastodynamic state can be calculated from two data. This model is shown to be applicable for predicting the elastodynamic properties of metallic compounds on the example of dodecaborides of rare-earth metals.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 5, pp. 89–92, May, 1991.
