Abstract

The quasi-static and dynamic deformation behaviors of the Ti-based bulk metallic glass (BMG) composite (Ti48Zr20Nb12Cu5Be15) were investigated in the supercooled liquid region. The present BMG composite exhibits homogenous viscous flow under quasi-static deformation, but shear-band dominated inhomogeneous plastic deformation upon dynamic loading. With the increase of the temperature, the flow stress decreases in both quasi-static and dynamic conditions. Due to the effective plastic accommodation of dendrites to the glass matrix, characteristic of the formation of shear steps and multiple dislocations, the remarkable plasticity under dynamic deformation has been obtained in the present BMG composite in SLR. The constitutive equation for the present BMG composite upon quasi-static loading is obtained. Upon dynamic loading, the flow stress approximately follows a linear relationship with the temperature: σ (MPa) ≈ 2,791-2.11T(K).
