Development and characterisation of lanthanum-based bulk metallic glass (bmg) with localised ductilisation

Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG) offers properties superior to the present industrialised metal alloy. The properties exceed crystalline metal in terms of hardness, strength, fatigue, and a higher level of stress-strain relation. In this research, the shear band phenomenon was observed through the compress...
