Rate-dependent serrated flow and plastic deformation in Ti45Zr16Be20Cu10Ni9 bulk amorphous alloy during nanoindentation.

چکیده
The plastic deformation of Ti45Zr16Be20Cu10Ni9 bulk metallic glass has been investigated by nanoindentation performed with loads ranging from 10 to 200 mN in a wide range of loading rates. The plastic flow in the alloy exhibited conspicuous serrations at low loading rates. The serrations, however, became less prominent as the rate of indentation increased. Atomic force microscopy showed a significant pile-up of materials around the indents, indicating that a highly localized plastic deformation occurred under nanoindentation. The possible mechanism governing the plastic deformation in bulk metallic glass specimens is tentatively discussed in terms of strain-induced free volume.

Rate dependence of serrated flow during nanoindentation of a bulk metallic glass
Plastic deformation of Pd–40Ni–20P bulk metallic glass (BMG) was investigated by instrumented nanoindentation experiments over a broad range of indentation strain rates. At low rates, the load–displacement curves during indentation exhibited numerous serrations or pop-ins, but these serrations became less prominent as the indentation rate was increased. Using the tip velocity during pop-in as a...
متن کاملEffect of strain rate on the formation of nanocrystallites in an Al-based amorphous alloy during nanoindentation
The effect of deformation by nanoindentation on nanocrystallization in amorphous Al90Fe5Gd5 was investigated by transmission electron microscopy. Massive precipitation of nanocrystallites is observed within the indents. Under the quasistatic condition used, a temperature rise due to adiabatic heating is likely negligible, confirming that plastic deformation can induce crystallization without a ...
متن کاملRate dependence of serrated flow in a metallic glass
Plastic deformation of metallic glasses at low temperatures is known to be highly localized to narrow shear bands. It is generally believed that shear-band formation is very weakly dependent on the strain rate or temperature. However, some reports suggest that the strain rate affects shear-band formation. Mukai et al. reported that the density of shear bands in a Pd-based bulk metallic glass in...
متن کاملEffective temperature dynamics of shear bands in metallic glasses.
We study the plastic deformation of bulk metallic glasses with shear transformation zone (STZ) theory, a physical model for plasticity in amorphous systems, and compare it with experimental data. In STZ theory, plastic deformation occurs when localized regions rearrange due to applied stress and the density of these regions is determined by a dynamically evolving effective disorder temperature....
متن کاملImprinting bulk amorphous alloy at room temperature
We present investigations on the plastic deformation behavior of a brittle bulk amorphous alloy by simple uniaxial compressive loading at room temperature. A patterning is possible by cold-plastic forming of the typically brittle Hf-based bulk amorphous alloy through controlling homogenous flow without the need for thermal energy or shaping at elevated temperatures. The experimental evidence su...
