The efficient cluster packing model : An atomic structural model for metallic glasses

TL;DR: In this paper, a structural model for metallic glasses based on a new sphere packing scheme is described, which combines random positioning of solvent atoms with atomic order of solutes to produce efficient filling of space by solute-centered clusters.

A survey of instrumented indentation studies on metallic glasses

Abstract: The development of instrumented nanoindentation equipment has occurred concurrently with the discovery of many new families of bulk metallic glass during the past decade. While indentation testing has long been used to assess the mechanical properties of metallic glasses, depth-sensing capabilities offer a new approach to study the fundamental physics behind glass deformation. This article is a succinct review of the research to date on the indentation of metallic glasses. In addition to standard hardness measurements, the onset of plasticity in metallic glasses is reviewed as well as the role of shear banding in indentation, structural changes beneath the indenter, and rate-dependent effects measured by nanoindentation. The article concludes with perspectives about the future directions for nanocontact studies on metallic glasses.

Mechanical properties of Al-based metal matrix composites reinforced with Zr-based glassy particles produced by powder metallurgy

TL;DR: In this article, the fracture characteristics of the reinforcing particles were rationalized using a proposed fracture criterion, and the yield strength and the elastoplastic deformation of such composites containing a high volume fraction of glassy particles were accurately modeled using a shear lag model and a self-consistent effective medium approach.

Metallic Phase with Long-Range Orientational Order and No Translational Symmetry

TL;DR: In this article, a metallic solid with long-range orientational order, but with icosahedral point group symmetry, which is inconsistent with lattice translations, was observed and its diffraction spots are as sharp as those of crystals but cannot be indexed to any Bravais lattice.

Non-crystalline Structure in Solidified Gold–Silicon Alloys

TL;DR: This article showed that amorphous configurations have been retained in the solid state by cooling from the melt with sufficient celerity so as to prevent formation of the equilibrium crystalline structures in solid metals and alloys.
