Abstract A new method of calculation of EOS and heat of formation of alloy by a modified TFD model is proposed. For elements, only their specific volumes at zero pressure and temperature are required as basic parameters, and the quantum corrections to the kinetic energy are admitted for a better accuracy in later calculations. Nothing more is demanded to be known a priori. Thus computations and analyses for some binary alloys such as Al-Cu, Al-Ni and Al-Co on their EOS as well as heat of formation have been car-ried out in detail. Results obtained are in good agreement with measurements. The theory also provides an explanation for the Miedema's empirical relations between the heat of formation and the eletronic characteristics in alloys. In a subsequent paper it will be shown that there is an intimate correlation between the present theory and the covalent bond theory of Pauling and Yu. It is quite plausible that the TFD model has far wider fields of application and may serve as a probe to both research and design of materials.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
