Advancing the understanding of bulk metallic glasses as structural materials through exploration of mechanical properties

Creator:

Naleway, Steven E.

Abstract:

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) offer a great deal of potential through their near-theoretical strength, potentially high toughness and unique forming and molding traits. However, there are still a number of outstanding issues that bar their widespread use. This thesis describes the investigation of three research questions each designed to further...

Effect of ambient environment on the fracture and fatigue properties of Zr-based bulk metallic glasses

Creator:

Philo, Sarah L.

Abstract:

The effect of ambient environment on the fatigue behavior of two Zr-Ti-Cu-Ni-Be bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) is examined in the present study. The first metallic glass, Zr₄₄Ti₁₁Ni₁₀Cu₁₀Be₂₅, was tested to establish the presence of an environmental effect in the fatigue growth curve measured in ambient air. Fatigue growth curves produced...

Effect of Imprinting Process on Fracture Behavior of a Zr-based Bulk Metallic Glass

Creator:

Li, Bosong

Abstract:

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are relatively new amorphous materials that have received much attention in recent years. Rapid cooling methods from the liquid state provides the possibility to bypass crystallization during solidification. Due to the lack of crystal defects such as grain boundaries and dislocations, BMGs can have some special...
