Cu47.5Zr47.5Al5 bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) were cast from the melt temperature 1143 to 1373 K. The structure, thermal and mechanical properties of the BMGs were investigated by XRD, DSC, HRTEM, dilatometric measurements, micro-hardness tests and uniaxial compression. The results indicate that the microstructure and mechanical performance of BMGs are closely affected by the casting temperature. Proper casting temperature ensures the BMGs with large relaxed excess free volume (REFV) and nano-crystallites, which favor the plastic deformation in Cu47.5Zr47.5Al5 BMGs. Regulating the preparing parameters is an important solution to good plasticity in BMGs.

AbstractThis paper summarises our recent cyclic nanoindentation experiment studies on a range of materials including single crystal and nanocrystalline copper, single crystal aluminium and bulk metallic glasses with different glass transition temperatures. The unloading and reloading processes of the nanoindentation curves have been analysed. The reverse plasticity will be discussed in the context of plastic deformation mechanisms involved. The effect of loading rates on the mechanical properties of materials upon cyclic loading will also be discussed.

Different flow regimes realised by a channel-confined active nematic have a characteristic length same as channel width. Flow structures exhibit the intrinsic length scale of the fluid only in the fully developed active turbulence regime.
