Title: Multiphase aluminum equations of state via density functional theory

Abstract

We have performed density functional theory (DFT) based calculations for aluminum in extreme conditions of both pressure and temperature, up to five times compressed ambient density, and over 1 000 000 K in temperature. In order to cover such a domain, DFT methods including phonon calculations, quantum molecular dynamics, and orbital-free DFT are employed. Our results are then used to construct a SESAME equation of state for the aluminum 1100 alloy, encompassing the fcc, hcp, and bcc solid phases as well as the liquid regime. We also provide extensive comparison with experiment, and based on this we also provide a slightly modified equation of state for the aluminum 6061 alloy.
