Title: | Geometry-sensitive plasticity of a monolithic bulk metallic glass | Authors: | Wu, W. Li, Y. |
Issue Date: | 2008 | Citation: | Wu, W.,Li, Y. (2008). Geometry-sensitive plasticity of a monolithic bulk metallic glass. Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings 1048 : 84-88. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | We report a strong geometry-dependence of compressive plasticity in a Zr-based bulk metallic glass (BMG). With a standard orthogonal geometry, the Zr-based BMG typically fractured at a plastic strain less than 2%. However, by modifying the sample geometry while maintaining the sample aspect ratio, a large apparent compressive plastic strain over 10% was achieved consistently. These results present a new method on arresting the catastrophic failure of the glassy alloys and offer ways for BMGs in engineering applications. © 2008 Materials Research Society. | Source Title: | Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/75230 | ISBN: | 9781605608433 | ISSN: | 02729172 |
