    ABSTRACT

    Symmetric Notches Cause Strengthening in Brittle Metallic glasses

    Yun Teng1, Zhendong Sha1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.23, No.1, pp. 18-18, 2021, DOI:10.32604/icces.2021.08471

    Abstract For all engineering materials, the flaws are introduced inevitably from fabrication, mechanical damage, and corrosion. These stress raisers always induce catastrophic failures and it is therefore of great importance to understand the effect of flaws on the mechanical properties of engineering materials. The effect of flaws on metallic glasses (MGs) is a debatable topic because many relevant works have reported notch strengthening, notch weakening and notch insensitivity for brittle MGs. The significant notch strengthening of MGs was attributed to the transition of failure mechanism, from catastrophic shear banding to ductile fracture. Here we investigate systematically… More >

    ABSTRACT

    Length scale effects on the shear localization process in metallic glasses: A theoretical and computational study

    Prakash Thamburaja

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.20, No.3, pp. 79-80, 2011, DOI:10.3970/icces.2011.020.079

    Abstract Some recent experiments on sub-micron and nano-sized metallic glass specimens have shown that the shear localization process becomes more stable and less catastrophic when compared to the response exhibited by large sample sizes. This leads to the discovery that the shear localization process and fracture can be delayed by decreasing sample volume. In this work we develop a non-local and finite-deformation-based constitutive model using thermodynamic principles and the theory of micro-force balance to study the causes for the aforementioned observations. The constitutive model has also been implemented into a commercially-available finite-element program by writing a… More >

    ABSTRACT

    Effects of strain rate and temperature on the steady state flow stress of metallic glasses

    ZHIBIN LU, YUANLI XU, HANG SHAO, JIANGONG LI

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.16, No.2, pp. 63-64, 2011, DOI:10.3970/icces.2011.016.063

    Abstract This paper reports the effects of strain rate and temperature on the steady state flow stress of metallic glasses. Based on the energy conservation between the applied mechanical work and the increased energy in metallic glasses at steady state flow, the steady state stress of metallic glasses was found to depend on difference in free volume between undeformed state and steady state of flow. The effects of strain rate (or temperature) on the steady state flow stress can be described by a linear relationship between the steady state flow stress and temperature (or logarithm of More >
