Effects of Pressure
As temperature increased , we would expect a decrease in volume (NTE)The extent of NTE also varies with pressureWe observed the impact of systematic increases of pressure on volumeWe expect further NTE with increased pressure over the set volume range Slide15

Conclusions
The simulation for both Cadmium and Zinc single configurations are unstable above 5 katm, resulting in implosion The double structures responded as an NTE, until a critical point whereby they began behaving as normal materials (increasing in volume)Slide19
