“…Our recent investigations on approximant phases and CMAs also showed that these relatively close-packed structures show no transitions at higher pressures, as e.g. the W-Al--Co--Ni phase (Krauss, Gu, Katrych, Deloudi and Steurer, 2007), Rh 3 Bi 14 (Gu, Krauss, Grin and Steurer, 2007) or Mg 2 Co 3 Sn 10þx (Krauss and Gu, 2008). It turned out, as could be expected, that the bulk modulus is more related to the constituting elements than to the crystal structure.…”
