Hardness prediction of the carbides in Fe-based multi-elements alloy by first-principles
The electronic structures of the carbides such as VC, WC, V 2 C, Mo 2 C, Cr 7 C 3 and Cr 23 C 6 in Fe-based multi-elements alloy were investigated by first principles. According to the bonding characteristics, the different models were adopted to predict the hardness of these carbides, then, which w...
