Abstract

In-situ uniaxial compression tests were conducted on four tungsten fiber reinforced bulk metallic glass matrix composites using neutron diffraction. The results were interpreted with a finite element model. Both phases were seen to approximately obey the von Mises yield criterion. The fibers were observed to yield first and then transfer load to the matrix. (C) 2003 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
