“…The A8 alloy (referred to as the composite containing 8% of dendrites, see Table 1) fractures catastrophically at the strength of 1780 ± 35 MPa without detectable plasticity, similar to its glass matrix [33]. decreases linearly with the increase in f d , which can be reasonably described by the rule of mixtures [13,32]: [33,36]. As opposed to the yield strengths, a nonlinear enhancement of the plasticity was observed [13,32], showing the percolation transition, i.e., the onset of macroscopic plasticity [37,38], around the critical volume fraction 21%.…”
