Rate-Dependent Temperature Increases in Shear Bands of a Bulk-Metallic Glass

Abstract

Using an infrared (IR) camera, we observed in situ the dynamical shear-banding processes of the geometrically constrained specimens of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass in a quasi-static compression at various strain rates, measured the temperature evolutions within the specimens, and calculated the temperature increases in shear bands. Strain-rate-dependent serrated plastic flow is a result of shear-banding operations. The average temperature increases in the specimens are observed during the plastic deformation and their magnitudes are strain rate dependent. The temperature increases in shear bands are related to strain rates. The higher the strain rates, the larger the temperature increases in a shear band. The shear strain in a shear band may be responsible for the strain-rate-dependent temperature increase in a shear band.
