“…Thus, discarding all elements beyond J 1 is sufficient for most metals since the difference between ∆E ISF and ∆E ESF is small relative to other fault energies [10,11,12]. The observation that the ∆E ISF is closely related to the difference between the formation energies of the fcc and hcp phases has been well known and explained in the literature [13,14,12] and the ANNNI model has been used extensively to calculate the ∆E ISF of several transition metals [15], as well as the effect of solute atoms on the ∆E ISF of Fe [7,8,9] and Ni [16] and compared well with ∆E ISF obtained using the conventional supercell approach. In the case of the L1 2 ordered compound, a SISF is effectively equivalent to the ISF for the super-lattice.…”
