Abstract

The effects of mixed mode loading on the fracture behavior of Zr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) (Vitreloy I and Vitreloy 106) were investigated. Mixed mode I/II and mixed mode I/III fracture conditions were tested using both notched and fatigue-precracked specimens. Fully amorphous samples exhibited tremendous increases in fracture energy with the application of mixed mode loading, while partially crystalline samples exhibited more modest increases. A comparison to the behavior of other material systems (e.g., polymers, ceramics, crystalline metals, and composites) illustrates the tremendous increase in fracture energy exhibited by these BMGs under mixed mode loading conditions.
