The strain rate dependence of plastic deformation of Ce60Al15Cu10Ni15 bulk metallic glass was studied by nanoindentation. Even though the ratio of room temperature to the glass transition temperature was very high (0.72) for this alloy, the plastic deformation was dominated by shear banding under nanoindentation. The alloy exhibited a critical loading rate dependent serrated flow feature. That is, with increasing loading rate, the alloy exhibited a transition from less prominent serrated flow to pronounced serrated flow during continuous loading but from serrated to smoother flow during stepped loading.

We investigated the effect of strain rate on the plastic-flow stress of a Zr-based bulk-metallic glass in quasistatic compression. The results indicate that the plastic-flow stress is dependent on the strain rate: an increase in the strain rate leads to a decrease in the plastic-flow stress, and vice versa. However, simply loading, unloading, and reloading at a constant strain rate do not change the plastic-flow stress. This strain-rate dependence of the plastic-flow stress may be related to shear-banding operations.

In this study, the rate-dependent mechanical behavior of a Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 bulk metallic glass was studied using quasi-static and dynamic shear-punch testing at room temperature. The results demonstrate that the shear strength of this alloy is insensitive to the applied strain rate. However, the formation of shear bands and the serrated flow exhibits a significant strain rate effect. The shear banding-induced fracture patterns and the fracture-melting phenomenon were analyzed based on the free volume theory and the energy transfer model.
