The design of multi-functional BMGs is limited by the lack of a quantitative understanding of the variables that control the glass-forming ability (GFA) of alloys. Both geometric frustration (e.g. differences in atomic radii) and energetic frustration (e.g. differences in the cohesive energies of the atomic species) contribute to the GFA. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of binary Lennard-Jones mixtures with only energetic frustration. We show that there is little correlation between the heat of mixing and critical cooling rate $R_c$, below which the system crystallizes, except that $Delta H_{rm mix} < 0$. By removing the effects of geometric frustration, we show strong correlations between $R_c$ and the variables $epsilon_- = (epsilon_{BB}-epsilon_{AA})/(epsilon_{AA}+epsilon_{BB})$ and ${overline epsilon}_{AB} = 2epsilon_{AB}/(epsilon_{AA}+epsilon_{BB})$, where $epsilon_{AA}$ and $epsilon_{BB}$ are the cohesive energies of atoms $A$ and $B$ and $epsilon_{AB}$ is the pair interaction between $A$ and $B$ atoms. We identify a particular $f_B$-dependent combination of $epsilon_-$ and ${overline epsilon}_{AB}$ that collapses the data for $R_c$ over nearly $4$ orders of magnitude in cooling rate.
We perform molecular dynamics simulations to compress binary hard spheres into jammed packings as a function of the compression rate $R$, size ratio $alpha$, and number fraction $x_S$ of small particles to determine the connection between the glass-f
Various combinations of characteristic temperatures, such as the glass transition temperature, liquidus temperature, and crystallization temperature, have been proposed as predictions of the glass forming ability of metal alloys. We have used statist
The effect of dopants on the metallic glass forming ability is usually considered based on analysis of changes in the liquid structure or thermodynamics. What is missing in such considerations is an analysis of how a dopant changes the properties of
Motivated by the mean field prediction of a Gardner phase transition between a normal glass and a marginally stable glass, we investigate the off-equilibrium dynamics of three-dimensional polydisperse hard spheres, used as a model for colloidal or gr
Due to high viscosity, glassy systems evolve slowly to the ordered state. Results of molecular dynamics simulation reveal that the structural ordering in glasses becomes observable over experimental (finite) time-scale for the range of phase diagram
