Abstract
A model of temperature dependent shear modulus and Young's modulus in bulk metallic glasses is established. The inherent relationship between the glass transition temperatures, the Debye temperature and shear modulus of bulk metallic glasses is revealed. The temperature dependent shear modulus can be predicted by our model without any fitting parameter. The model is presented based on a critical energy density criterion for plastic yielding which is derived from fundamental thermodynamics. This critical energy density consists of two parts: the heat added to the system and the input of mechanical energy, which are not completely equivalent. The agreement between theoretical results and experimental results is striking. And it is found that the temperature dependent Young's modulus could also be predicted pretty well by our model.
