Study of mechanical behavior of metallic glasses Mg-Cu-Y using nano-indenter

The mechanical properties of the amorphous bulk metallic glassy (BMG) alloy, Mg58Cu31Y11, are examined by a non-traditional analytic method - nanoindentation scratch test. This thesis will discuss the influences of friction force, and fracture surface geometry on the BMG surface for load, depth of scratch, scratch velocity, and test temperature of the nano-scratch process. In this study, experimental factors, including load, depth of scratch, scratch velocity, and test temperature, are taken into consideration to investigate the effects of the friction force. And then, this research utilizes regression analysis to establish BMG machining experience formula. The significant parameters of the friction force on nano-scratch and the reliability of the prediction model are investigated by statistical software.
According to the results, the friction force is nearly proportional to power of the load. The friction force exhibits a slightly dependence on the test temperature. Besides, the nano-scratch results show that the friction coefficient also increases as the load and test temperature increases. The results associated with the analysis of the variance can be practiced to assess the prominence among experimental factors. The analysis indicates that the load, test temperature play significant factors on the friction force. The results of the regression analysis using a statistical software can be applied to model the mathematical relationship between machining factors and friction force. It anticipates that the model is able to predict friction force over a wide variety of scratching conditions. The model is also proved in good agreement with experimental results.
