摘要
Simulated nanoindentation tests on a three-dimensional model of a binary metallic glass-forming alloy reveal how the stress field and material structure interact to control deformation beneath the indenter. Initially, the stress field follows the Hertzian solution with fluctuations due to heterogeneities. Homogeneous or localized plastic deformation arises, depending on the processing history of the material. In the case of localized deformation, the first shear band initiates sub-surface, relaxing the local shear stress. The subsequent shear band morphology is observed to be rate-dependent. Deformation induced changes in material structure are characterized in terms of short-range ordering and free volume, with the former providing significantly greater signal-to-noise.
