Table II:

Thermodynamic free energy functions for mechanical deformation of P22, HAdV, and HSV shells, calculated using the values of FNS model parameters (from Table I): free energies for Hertzian deformation ΔGH, bending deformation ΔGb, and plastic deformation ΔGp, obtained with Eqs. (12), and the free energy for particle fracture ΔGf. The values of ΔGf obtained using Eq. (15) and by performing the numerical integration of the average experimental FX-spectra are separated by the slash.
