Abstract:

In this present study, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation has been performed to investigate the influence of applied hydrostatic compressive and tensile pressure on glass forming process of Ni₆₂Nb₃₈ bimetallic glass using embedded atom method (EAM). During fast cooling (~10 K ps^-1), tensile and compressive pressure has been applied having 0.001 GPa,0.01 GPa and 0.1 GPa magnitude. The glass transition temperature (T_g) for each pressurized (Tensile and Compressive nature) cooling case has been calculated and T_g is found to be dependent on both magnitude and nature of the pressure applied during cooling process.Voronoi cluster analysis has also been carried out to identify the structural evaluation during hydrostatically pressurised fast cooling process. In case of both hydrostatic tensile and compressive pressurised cooling processes, T_g increases with the increase of pressure from 0.001 GPa to 0.1 GPa in magnitude.
