Abstract

The paper presents computation of second- and third-order elastic constants of Laves phase compounds ScOs2 and YOs2 at room temperature using Lennard-Jones potential model. The thermal relaxation time, ultrasonic velocity, ultrasonic attenuation and other related thermo-physical parameters (Debye average velocity, Debye temperature, thermal conductivity, specific heat and thermal energy density) are also calculated using second- and third-order elastic constants. The obtained elastic and ultrasonic properties of chosen compounds have been likened with the properties of other hexagonal structured materials for complete analysis and characterization.
