%X A modified angular force model for the lattice dynamics of metals is used to test Lindemann's melting criterion by computing the ratio Ym of the mean square amplitude of thermal vibrations to the square of the interatomic spacing at the melting point for a number of cubic metals belonging to different groups in the periodic table.
