This paper studies the tensile creep behavior of Cu64Zr36 metallic glass through molecular dynamics simulations, discussing the effects of stress and temperature on activated states evolution, predicting creep failure time, and identifying three creep mechanisms. The study reveals that different stress and temperature regimes are dominated by various creep mechanisms involving atomic diffusion, anelastic deformation, and local inhomogeneous shear deformation. These mechanisms help to understand the creep behavior and describe the relationship between creep behavior and mechanical relaxations in metallic glasses.
In this paper, the tensile creep behavior of Cu64Zr36 metallic glass (MG) is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The effects of stress and temperature on the evolution of activated states during nanoscale creep tests are discussed, the creep failure time is predicted by linear regression analysis and three creep mechanisms are found. The creep mechanisms at the low stress and high temperature regime is dominated by thermally activated atomic diffusional creep; the low temperature and low stress regime is dominated by anelastic deformation and homogeneous activation of elastic events, while the low temperature and high stress regime is governed by local inhomogeneous shear deformation through shear transformation zones (STZs) percolation and embryonic shear band formation. These mechanisms help to further understand the creep behavior and derive an atomistic description of the relationship between the creep behavior and the three mechanisms of mechanical relaxations in MGs: atomic diffusion via cooperative atomic motion or a relaxation, stress-induced STZs activation such as slow beta relaxation and anelastic deformation (fast beta' relaxation), respectively.
