Abstract

With the in-depth research on high-entropy alloys (HEAs), most of the current research uses experimental methods to verify the effects of the main elements of HEAs on the mechanical properties of the alloys. However, this is limited by the long experimental period and the influence of many external factors. The computer simulation method can not only effectively save costs and shorten the test cycle, but also help to discover new materials and broaden the field of materials. Therefore, in this paper, the physical properties (such as lattice constant, density and elastic constant) of AlCoxCrFeNi (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) HEAs were calculated based on the first-principles calculation method and virtual crystal approximate modeling method. It is found that AlCoxCrFeNi HEAs have the best hardness and toughness properties, with a Co content of 0.5~0.7. The research results can provide theoretical guidance for the preparation of HEAs with optimal mechanical properties.
