A simple empirical potential is employed to describe the atomic interactions in face-centred cubic (FCC) metals and alloys. Using this model, the finite-temperature properties of some FCC metals and alloys, i.e. Ag, Cu and Ag - Cu disordered alloys have been calculated via a free energy minimization approach under the quasiharmonic approximation (QA). The calculation yields excellent agreement with the experimental results.
