Elucidating the Mechanisms of Rate-Dependent Deformation at Ambient Temperatures in a Model Metallic Glass

In this work, the Shear Transformation Zone (STZ) dynamics model is adapted to capture the transitions between different regimes of flow serration in the deformation map of metallic glass. This was accomplished by scaling the STZ volume with a log-linear fit to the strain rate, and also adjusting th...
