Atomistic Origin of Rate-Dependent Serrated Plastic Flow in Metallic Glasses

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Nanoindentation simulations on a binary metallic glass were performed under various strain rates by using molecular dynamics. The rate-dependent serrated plastic flow was clearly observed, and the spatiotemporal behavior of its underlying irreversible atomic rear...
