The definition of the bulk modulus offers an EoS (with K=cte=K0) -This is only a naive example of how to generate EoS. -K is not cte. It varies with P, except for really ifinitesimal volume changes.
Murnaghan EoS • It can be similarly derive assuming is cte
Strains • Eulerian strain (f>0 for compression) • Lagrangian strain (ε<0 for compression) OK for ε→0 • Hencky strain (logarithmic strain) For hydrostatic compression
For f → 0 • One more relation to be used: Therefore Bulk modulus with Now we will expand the free energy in term of (eulerian) strains and derive relationships P(V), K(V), K’(V)… F=af2+bf3+cf+…
Birch Murnaghan EoS (2nd order) • 2nd order expansion of the free energy F=af2 • Recall that • Therefore with with
Therefore for f→0 LM assemblage Murnaghan EoS overestimate P for non-infinitesimal strain
Birch-Murnaghan 3rd order Take into account: with Then one gets: At P=0 (f=0), K=K0 K’=K0’ with → 2 eq.s for 2 unknowns, a and b If K0’=4 we recover the 2nd order BM
One needs measurements in a larger pressure range to fit a 3rd order EoS • There are trade offs between Ko and Ko’ • If the pressure range is small Ko’ is usually constrained to 4.
Vinet EoS • This EoS is based on a different expansion of F l is a scaling length • Defining and changing variables (r→V) in F • Replace a, l, K0, and K0’ from relations above and get
Logarithmic EoS • Expand F in powers of Hencky strains εH like Birch-Murnaghan • To 2nd order in εH one gets • And to 3rd order one gets
Summary • EoSs based on expansions of F in terms of strain (finite strain EoSs) give order dependent parameters (trade offs). • High order EoS require data in larger pressure ranges. • The Vinet EoS is good for any pressure range.
