Microscopic dynamics perspective on the relationship between Poisson ratio and ductility of metallic glasses

Materials Science 2015-06-17 v1 Soft Condensed Matter

Abstract

In metallic glasses a clear correlation had been established between plasticity or ductility with the Poisson ratio and alternatively the ratio of the elastic bulk modulus to the shear modulus, K/G. Such a correlation between these two macroscopic mechanical properties is intriguing and is challenging to explain from the dynamics on a microscopic level. Such a microscopic explanation is provided in this paper.
