The fracture of metallic glasses has received relatively little attention until recently. The
development of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) with more compositions, large sample sizes …

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) can exhibit excellent combinations of strength and fracture
toughness that cannot be achieved by traditional metals, making them attractive for load …

The mechanical properties of amorphous alloys have proven both scientifically unique and
of potential practical interest, although the underlying deformation physics of these materials …

The following article is based on the MRS Medal talk presented by William L. Johnson at the
1998 MRS Fall Meeting on December 2, 1998. The MRS Medal is awarded for a specific …

The intrinsic plasticity or brittleness of crystalline metals correlates with the ratio of the elastic
shear modulus μ to the bulk modulus B; when the ratio μ/B exceeds a critical value, the …

In the last decade metallic glasses have regained considerable interest due to the fact that
new glass-forming compositions have been found that have a critical cooling rate of less …

We report a brittle Mg-based bulk metallic glass which approaches the ideal brittle behavior.
However, a dimple structure is observed at the fracture surface by high resolution scanning …

The development of bulk metallic glasses and composites for improving the mechanical
properties has occurred with the discovery of many ductile metallic glasses and glass matrix …

Ductile phase containing bulk metallic glass composites are prepared via an in situ method
by rapid quenching of a homogenous Zr56. 2Ti13. 8Nb5. 0Cu6. 9Ni5. 6Be12. 5 melt. The …

Metal-organic framework glasses feature unique thermal, structural, and chemical properties
compared to traditional metallic, organic, and oxide glasses. So far, there is a lack of …
