Ha. Bruck et al., QUASI-STATIC CONSTITUTIVE BEHAVIOR OF ZR41.25TI13.75NI10CU12.5BE22.5 BULK AMORPHOUS-ALLOYS, Scripta metallurgica et materialia, 30(4), 1994, pp. 429-434
Mechanical tests have been performed on bulk amorphous metal alloys to
determine their constitutive behavior. Based on the experimental resu
lts, it appears that amorphous metal alloys obey a Von Mises yield cri
terion. This result has implications in determining the micromechanism
s of plastic deformation in these materials.
