Abstract
Experimental data on structural relaxation in metallic glasses are discussed in terms of atomistic models, in particular the free volume model. It is shown that it is essential to discriminate between the behaviour of properties controlled by atomic mobility (viscosity and diffusivity) and other physical properties. The linkage between the two types of behaviour, through the free volume model, is demonstrated. The emphasis is on recent developments in the insight into the mechanism controlling diffusivity and viscosity in metallic glasses.
