Cyclic Hardening of Metallic Glasses under Hertzian Contacts: Experiments and STZ Dynamics Simulations

A combined program of experiments and simulations is used to study the problem of cyclic indentation loading on metallic glasses. The experiments use a spherical nanoindenter tip to study shear band formation in three glasses (two based on Pd and one on Fe), after subjecting the glass to cycles of l...
