Using geometrically constrained specimens, the plastic flow behaviors of the as-cast and the relaxed Zr52.5Cu17.9Ni14.6Al10.0Ti5.0 bulk metallic glass in the dynamic compression were investigated. Both alloys exhibit a significant plasticity in the dynamic compression. The plastic deformation in both alloys is still inhomogeneous, which is characterized by the serrated plastic flow and the formation of shear bands. Free volumes affect the shear banding and the plastic flow. The reduced free volume results in the deviation of the shear banding direction from the maximum shear stress. The relaxed alloy exhibits the obvious stress overshoot, which is consistent with the theoretical prediction using a free volume model.

We have examined the mechanical behavior of Zr57Ti5Cu20Ni8Al10 bulk metallic glass under uniaxial compression at strain rates from 10−4to 3 × 103 s−1. The failure stress decreases with increasing strain rate, and shear-band formation remains the dominant deformation mechanism. A consideration of basic properties of adiabatic shear bands makes it appear unlikely that shear bands formed under quasi-static loading are adiabatic; in the dynamic case, the time scales of deformation and thermal conduction are similar, indicating that a more sophisticated calculation is required. In the dynamic tests, however, high-speed cinematography reveals evidence that the mechanism of failure involves an adiabatic component.

AbstractThe structural/mechanical behavior of zirconium-based (Vitreloy106) bulk metallic glass reinforced with tungsten particles is evaluated using elastic and plastic property measurements via static and dynamic compression tests performed on rod shaped samples. Anvil-on-rod impact tests combined with high-speed digital photography and velocity interferometry are used to obtain qualitative and quantitative information about the transient deformation and failure response of the composites. The deformation and failure mechanisms of recovered impacted specimens are also characterized and correlated with their structure and tungsten phase distribution. The results of these experiments and initial attempts at validating constitutive equations based on homogeneous/inhomogeneous plastic/viscous flow in glassy and glassy-crystalline composites will be presented.
