“…The weak points have the same elastic-plastic properties as the regular BMG material, except for a built-in softening response upon yielding. This approach has been used successfully to numerically study shear-banding phenomena in metallic glasses [26,27]. The Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, and yield strength of the TFMG coating are taken to be 124 GPa, 0.37, and 2.93 GPa, respectively.…”
