Bulk Metallic Glasses and Their Composites: A Brief History of Diverging Fields
Figure 4
(a) Ex situ metallic glass matrix composites exhibiting different volume fractions of soft particles and therefore, different levels of compressive plasticity. (b) SEM micrograph of a particle-reinforced ex situ metallic glass matrix composite exhibiting shear band arresting. Smaller dendrites and needle crystal phase are also present.
