The influence of cold rolling on the low temperature (30 to 300 K) internal friction of metallic glasses Cu50Ti50 and Ni78Si8B14 is investigated. It is shown that cold rolling of both metallic glasses up to 2 to 6% results in the appearance of a high relaxation damping peak aroung 260 to 280 K. The internal friction background below the peak shows a strong amplitude dependence. In highly predeformed specimens (≈ 16%) the internal friction peak is absent. Electron irradiation (2 MeV, 1019 cm−2) leads to the suppression of the deformation‐induced internal friction peak. The results are interpreted in the framework of the dislocation models of plastic flow of metallic glasses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
