The nano-cutting process of metallic glass (Zr52Cu20Ni16Ni12) processed at room temperature was studied by molecular dynamics simulation in this paper. At different cutting speeds, the microstructure of metallic glass, cutting force, strain morphology of cutting zone, temperature change of cutting zone and its influence on the quality of machined surface were analyzed. The simulation results show that the cutting speed has little effect on the content of Voronoi polyhedron in the cutting area of metallic glass. The cutting force increases significantly with the increase of cutting speed. The shape of strain deformation in the cutting zone of metallic glass material is significantly affected by the cutting speed, and the influence depth of strain is deepened with the increase of cutting speed. The increase of cutting speed has a significant effect on the temperature of the cutting zone of metallic glass, and the temperature of atoms in the cutting zone increases rapidly. The cutting speed has a significant impact on the surface quality of metal glass cutting. The surface quality of metal glass cutting becomes worse with the increase of cutting speed. In particular, the initial stage of plastic deformation in metal glass cutting process is simulated and analyzed, and the formation and evolution of its shear band and free volume are simulated and studied.

The nano cutting process of Zr-based amorphous alloy was simulated by molecular dynamics simulation in this paper. Through the research on the changing rule of cutting force in nano cutting of Zr-based amorphous alloy, it is found that the cutting force increases continuously, and the cutting rate is large at the initial stage of nano cutting, which may be related to the shear deformation of the atomic clusters or atomic clusters in the shear transition zone. The effect of cutting tool rake angle on nano cutting process for Zr-based amorphous alloy was studied. The simulation results show that the cutting force decreases with the increase of the rake angle of the cutting tool, and the friction coefficient between the rake face and the chip also decreases slightly. With the increase of the rake angle of the cutting tool, the pushing effect of the tool on the Zr-based amorphous alloy chip and the overall bending of the chip are weakened, leading to the increase of the chip height. The number of high-temperature atoms in the Zr-based amorphous alloy workpiece also decreases with the increase of the tool rake angle, and the cutting temperature distribution on the workpiece diffuses to the interior of the workpiece with the tool fillet as the center.
