Abstract

The rate-dependent deformation of Zr38Ti17Cu10.5Co12Be22.5 bulk metallic-glass-reinforced porous tungsten matrix composites was investigated over a wide range of strain rates. The composites were examined in two forms: the as-cast composite and the as-extruded composite by extrusion. In addition to showing greater strain hardening, the as-cast composite also shows much more obvious strain rate dependence of flow stress than the as-extruded composite. Microhardness tests were performed on the tungsten and the metallic glass phase in both composites, respectively. The results from the microhardness measurements indicate that the strain rate sensitivity of the as-extruded composite is primarily a result of strain rate sensitivity of the tungsten phase.
