Abstract Revealing the origin of the mechanical properties of metallic glasses (MG) is a long-standing problem. MGs respond to the external strain with the activation of collective atomic motion, but the triggers of such motions are not revealed yet, in contrast to the well-defined dislocations in crystals. In the present study we show that the change of atomic Von Mises stress is one of the key local parameters to indicate the stress response to a shear strain in metallic glass. Four random Cu50%Zr50% structures were prepared in first-principles molecular dynamics cooling process. Structures were then put… More >
