Introducing regions of looser atomic packing in bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) was reported to
facilitate plastic deformation, rendering BMGs more ductile at room temperature. Here, we …

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are a unique class of materials that are gaining traction in a
wide variety of applications due to their attractive physical properties. One limitation to the …

Extensive molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to monitor the development of
icosahedral order in Cu 64 Zr 34 liquid and metallic glass (MG). This study illustrates that at …

Disorder and amorphous systems constitute a large body of modern scientific and
technological research, where metallic glasses represent a simple realistic model material …

Our ability to exploit the benefits of metallic glasses depends on identifying alloys of high
