Quasi-static and dynamic deformation behaviors of Zr-based bulk-metallic-glass-matrix composites, fabricated by Bridgman solidification, were investigated in this study. Upon quasi-static compressive loading, the composites exhibit ultrahigh strength, accompanied by considerable plasticity. The multiplication of shear bands on the lateral surface of deformed samples, and the highly-dense liquid drops on the fracture surface, are in agreement with the improved plasticity. However, upon dynamic loading, the mechanical properties of the composites deteriorate considerably, due to insufficient time to form profuse shear bands. The strain-rate responses of the mechanical properties of the crystalline alloys and the in situ and ex situ bulk metallic glass composites are compared, and the different deformation mechanisms of the in situ composites upon quasi-static and dynamic loading are explained.

In this contribution, an analytical model was formulated to predict the tensile stress-strain relations of bulk metallic glass matrix composites (BMGCs) based on Weng's theoretical frame for dual-ductile composites. For in-situ BMGCs, BMG matrix also exhibits the elastic-plastic deform response as well as the dendrite phases during the stretching. The shear bands are regarded as Mode-I cracks, and whereby the strain-softening stage in the stress-strain curves can be well reflected. Furthermore, multi-particle representative volume element based FEM modelling was employed to clearly explain the failure mechanisms in BMGCs as a necessary complement. The predictions are in reasonable agreement with the experimental results. The presented analytical method will shed some light on optimizing the microstructures, and is of convenience in the engineering applications.
