Abstract

Abstract The volume dependence of the Gruneisen parameter has been used to calculate the pressure dependence of melting temperature using Lindemann law. The volume dependence of the Gruneisen parameter for some transition metals viz, Cu, Ni, Pd, and Pt has been determined using Shanker reciprocal relationship between γ and the ratio of pressure and bulk modulus. In this study, volume dependence of the Gruneisen parameter for some transition metals using the Stacey and Davis formulations for infinite pressure. The results for γ have been found similar from both the formulations given by Shanker and Stacey-Davis. The values of melting temperature are calculated and different pressures and Equation of state compared with the available data reported in the literature.
