Calculating Heat Capacities of FCC Metals via Monte-Carlo Method

Xiao S, Sharma T and Yamashita H

The metals of Aluminum (Al), Copper (Cu) and Nickel (Ni) are used in a wide range of industries. Aluminum, for example is used in airplanes and many other transportation vehicles. Copper is used in wires, and Nickel is used in making gas turbines. All of these three metals have a face-centered cubic (FCC) structure, in which atoms are located at each corner of a cubic unit cell and at the center of all cubic faces. In this paper, the heat capacities of Al, Cu and Ni are studied via Monte Carlo method.
