  1. Materials World Network: Structures and Mechanical Behavior of Metallic-Glass Thin FilmsPeter K. Liaw, University of Tennessee Knoxville, DMR 0909037 • Goals and Objectives: • While bulk metallic glasses (BMG) are brittle, metallic-glass thin films can be ductile and lead to enhanced fatigue resistance of structural materials coated with these amorphous films. • In collaboration with Prof. J.P. Chu of Taiwan, this Materials World Network program aims to design such films and to understand the fatigue mechanisms. • Findings: • Constitutive response of metallic glasses near a glass-transition temperature, Tg (Fig. 1) – aiming to develop a predictive micromechanical model with a direct connection to shear-banding kinetics • Fatigue-crack initiation caused by substrate slips can be suppressed by a strong interface adhesion and thin-film ductility (as accommodated by shear bands) – a high-resolution transmission-electron-microscopy image of a Zr-based metallic glass film on a stainless steel substrate (Fig. 2) Fig. 1: Rate-dependence of Au-based BMG near its Tg Shear bands and microstructures are of critical importance to understand the fatigue-crack initiation behavior Shear band ?
