Although the atomic structure of amorphous alloys, which lacks long-range translational
symmetry, may appear homogeneous at the macroscopic scale, their local dynamic and/or …

We review recent research into elastic and plastic deformation of metallic glasses, with an
emphasis on making connections between developments in theory and simulation (largely …

When a spatially uniform temperature change is imposed on a solid with more than one
phase, or on a polycrystal of a single, non-cubic phase (showing anisotropic expansion …

The structure of metallic glasses (MGs) has been a long-standing mystery. On the one hand,
MGs are amorphous materials with no long-range structural order; on the other hand …

Metallic glasses, first discovered nearly 50 years ago, are currently among the most actively
studied metallic materials. Available in sections up to several centimeters, with many novel …

We present a new semi-empirical potential suitable for molecular dynamics simulations of
liquid and amorphous Cu–Zr alloys. To provide input data for develo** the potential, new …

When a stress is applied on a metallic glass it deforms following Hook's law. Therefore it
may appear obvious that a metallic glass deforms elastically. Using x-ray diffraction and …

The correlation between structure and function lies at the heart of materials science and
engineering. Especially, modern functional materials usually contain inhomogeneities at an …

Room temperature loading of metallic glasses, at stresses below the macroscopic yield
stress, raises their enthalpy and causes creep. Thermal cycling of metallic glasses between …

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we have studied the atomic correlations
characterizing the second peak in the radial distribution function (RDF) of metallic glasses …
