We have calculated the thermodynamic properties of monatomic fcc
crystals from the high temperature limit of the Helmholtz free energy.
This equation of state included the static and vibrational energy
components. The latter contribution was calculated to order A4 of perturbation
theory, for a range of crystal volumes, in which a nearest
neighbour central force model was used. We have calculated the lattice
constant, the coefficient of volume expansion, the specific heat at
constant volume and a
A contingency model of job satisfaction
The present research study was designed to test a contingency
model of job satisfaction based on participation in decision making
