7. Glossary
high entropy alloy; alliage à haute entropie
Multi-component alloys, where each element is highly concentrated, or in other words, where the distinction between majority and minority elements is no longer relevant.
substitutional solid solution; solution solide de substitution
Crystalline phase in which two or more elements randomly share lattice sites.
entropie de configuration; configurational entropy
Part of the entropy of a system that depends on the position of the elements. In Boltzmann's definition, it depends on the number of possible configurations of the system.
yield stress
Mechanical stress beyond which deformation of a material becomes permanent; the elastic limit marks the boundary between the elastic...
