Abstract
Some experimental results obtained on metallic glasses of different compositions by means of internal friction and dynamic Young's modulus measurements, carried out between room temperature and the glass-transition temperature, are reported and discussed qualitatively. The results are examined with particular reference to structural relaxation phenomena and plastic deformation, paying particular attention to the specific role of the free volume and internal-stress distribution in determining the anelastic spectra.
