| Research Abstract |
The present study investigates the mechanism of spark emissions from crack peripheries observed during the fatigue fracture process of a bulk amorphous alloy Zr55Al10Ni5Cu30. Shear tests of the alloy were performed by using the double-edge-cracked plate specimens at room temperature in air. The loading rate of the shear tests was 15kN/s. The digital image correlation (DIC) method was used to measure deformation around the crack tips in the shear test specimens. The shear tests showed that specimens were fractured along highly strained areas and spark emissions were observed along such fracture paths. The results alsorevealed that spark emissions may have been induced by friction between mating fracture surfaces, especially shear lip regions.
