Fig. 4: Summary of the measured ultimate strengths for metallic materials.
From: Amorphous alloys surpass E/10 strength limit at extreme strain rates
Representative experimental results for crystalline and amorphous metals tested under quasi-static conditions8,9,10,23,49,50,51, at high rates (104 s−1 <\(\dot{\varepsilon }\)< 106 s−1)25,26,27,28, and ultrahigh rates (\(\dot{\varepsilon }\) > 106 s−1)11,14,15,16,17,52 are included for comparison. Our study on Cu-Zr MG shows the record-setting spall strength of ~M/13 for metals.
