Theoretical study of the elastic and thermodynamic properties of Pt_{3}Al with the L1_{2} structure under high pressure

In this work, the elastic and thermodynamic properties of Pt_{3}Al under high pressure are investigated using density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation. The results of bulk modulus and elastic constants at zero pressure are in good agreement with the available theoreti...
