Shaping metallic glasses by electromagnetic pulsing

Metallic glasses can be softened to different shapes whilst maintaining mechanical properties, and the related thermoplastic processing requires a heating source and an applied force. Here, the authors show an effective thermoplastic approach by a coupling between electric pulses and a magnetic fiel...
