Modeling the breaking points of metallic glasses |
November 27, 2012
Metallic glass alloys (or liquid metals) are three times stronger than the best industrial steel, but can be molded into complex shapes with the same ease as plastic. These materials are highly resistant to scratching, denting, shattering and corrosion. Mathematical methods developed by scientists will help explain why liquid metals have wildly different breaking points.
