From: Signature of local stress states in the deformation behavior of metallic glasses
Evolutions of the atomic von Mises stress/strain and rotation angle along the SB of the simulated soft [(a) and (b)] and hard [(c) and (d)] samples under loading. For both samples, strong rotation and strain fields are mutually exclusive: areas with the largest rotation (vortexes, yellow circles) exhibit reduced von Mises strain (STZs, red circles), whereas strong strain coincides with smaller rotation. The corresponding von Mises stress (unit, atm×Å3) curves also display a rather systematic variation, i.e., the stress is low at the STZ position (rose colored region) and relatively high at the vortexes (orange colored region).
