The deformation and flow of disordered solids, such as metallic glasses and concentrated
emulsions, involves swift localized rearrangements of particles that induce a long-range …

We review recent research into elastic and plastic deformation of metallic glasses, with an
emphasis on making connections between developments in theory and simulation (largely …

Microstructural heterogeneity is an important issue in understanding the mechanical and
physical properties of metallic glasses (MGs). Theoretically, physical aging below the glass …

Indentation, owing to its ability to induce permanent deformation in a controlled manner
even in highly brittle materials that are otherwise not amenable to critical mechanical testing …

Unraveling the microstructural heterogeneity is an important issue to understand the
physical and mechanical properties of metallic glasses. Structural relaxation below the glass …

Prior to macroscopic yielding, most materials undergo a regime of plastic activity that cannot
be resolved in conventional bulk deformation experiments. In this pre-yield, or micro-plastic …

This review paper aims to outline the development of Metallic Glass and its progress to
functionally graded material. The review begins with the fundamental theory of producing …

Due to the high solubility limit of oxygen in Zr, dissolution of oxygen in the Zr-based alloys is
unavoidable. However, as an alloying element, the effect of oxygen on the microstructure …

Nanoindentation is a technique which can be used to measure the mechanical properties of
materials with high precision, even when they are only available in small quantities. As a …

The incipient plasticity of an amorphous solid represents the onset of shear deformation,
which is a stochastic progress closely related to microstructure evolution. It is well known …
