The work is devoted to a brief overview of the Interstitialcy Theory (IT) as applied to different relaxation phenomena occurring in metallic glasses upon structural relaxation and crystallization. The basic hypotheses of the IT and their experimental verification are shortly considered. The main focus is given on the interpretation of recent experiments on the heat effects, volume changes and their link with the shear modulus relaxation. The issues related to the development of the IT and its relationship with other models on defects in metallic glasses are discussed.

We show that the kinetics of endothermal and exothermal effects occurring in the supercooled liquid state and upon crystallization of metallic glasses can be well reproduced using temperature dependences of their shear moduli. It is argued that the interrelation between the heat effects and shear modulus relaxation reflects thermally activated evolution of interstitial-type defect system inherited from the maternal melt.

Abstract We present a novel approach to the understanding of heat effects induced by structural relaxation of metallic glasses. The key idea consists in the application of a general thermodynamic equation for the entropy change due to the evolution of a non-equilibrium part of a complex system. This non-equilibrium part is considered as a defect subsystem of glass and its evolution is governed by local thermoactivated rearrangements with a Gibbs free energy barrier proportional to the high-frequency shear modulus. The only assumption on the nature of the defects is that they should provide a reduction of the shear modulus – a diaelastic effect. This approach allows to determine glass entropy change upon relaxation. On this basis, the kinetics of the heat effects controlled by defect-induced structural relaxation is calculated. A very good agreement between the calculation and specially performed calorimetric and shear modulus measurements on three metallic glasses is found.

ABSTRACTWe have used transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to investigate the structure of shear bands produced by bending electron-transparent Zr52.5Cu17.9Ni14.6Al10Ti5 metallic glass specimens. Shear bands were located by comparing the structure of the specimens before and after deformation. The shear band spacing is influenced by the structure of the specimen; portions of the specimen with a significant population of nanocrystals show a smaller separation between shear bands. Quantitative high resolution TEM analysis based on ratio technique has been used to explore the defect structure in shear bands. High density and void-like defects with size of about 1 nm were found in shear bands formed in both amorphous and nanocrystalline areas. A simple model was proposed to explain the formation of these defects.

It is now generally accepted that meteorites are fragments produced by the collision of parent bodies of asteroidal dimensions. Optical metallographic evidence suggests that there exists a group of iron meteorites which exhibit structures similar to those observed in explosively shock loaded iron. It seems likely that shock loading of meteorites could be produced by preterrestrial impact of their parent bodies as mentioned above.We have therefore looked at the defect structure of one of these meteorites (Trenton) and compared the results with those made on a) an unshocked ‘standard’ meteorite (Canyon Diablo)b) an artificially shocked ‘standard’ meteorite (Canyon Diablo) andc) an artificially shocked specimen of pure α-iron.
