  • Abstract
    The melting of elemental solids is modeled as a dislocation-mediated transition on a lattice. Statistical mechanics of linear defects is used to obtain a new relation between melting temperature, crystal structure, atomic volume, and shear modulus that is accurate to 17% for at least half of the Periodic Table.
