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 …
Bulk metallic glass (BMG) formers are multicomponent alloys that vitrify with remarkable ease during solidification. Technological interest in these materials has been generated by …
The mechanical properties of amorphous alloys have proven both scientifically unique and of potential practical interest, although the underlying deformation physics of these materials …

In this review, we report on the formation of a variety of novel, metallic, glassy materials that might well have applications as functional materials. The metallic glasses, with excellent …
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 …
Using Cu-Zr models, we demonstrate icosahedral ordering as a microscopic origin of the non-Arrhenius dynamical slowing down in metallic supercooled liquids. This correlation …

Recent reports suggest that Poisson's ratio (ν), or the related ratio of shear modulus G to bulk modulus B, indicates the potential of metallic glasses (MGs) to sustain plastic strain …
The configurational properties associated with the transition from anelasticity to plasticity in a transiently deforming metallic glass-forming liquid are studied. The data reveal that the …
A long-sought goal in metallic glasses is to impart ductility without conceding their strength and elastic limit. The rational design of tough metallic glasses, however, remains …
