Calculations of uniaxial tensile strength of Al–Cu–Ni based metallic glasses using molecular dynamics simulations

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed to investigate the mechanical properties (MPs) of Al–Cu–Ni based metallic glasses (MGs). The embedded atom method interaction potential has been employed for present MD technique. Due to brittle nature of Cu50Zr50 we studied the effect of Al (2 at%) on the MPs. Moreover, effect of Co and Ni (2 at%) on MPs of two component MGs (NiAl and FeCu respectively) is studied that are generated by...
