Fig. 12.. Variation of specific strength (($\frac{{{\sigma }_{\text{y}}}}{\rho }$, ${{\sigma }_{\text{y}}}$ and $\rho $ are yield strength and density, respectively) with elongation of various bulk metallic glass composites reported in Refs. [3,6,10,[52], [53], [54], [55], [56], [57], [58], [59], [60], [61]] (The densities were calculated by $\rho =\underset{i}{\mathop \sum }\,{{C}^{i}}{{M}^{i}}/\underset{i}{\mathop \sum }\,\frac{{{C}^{i}}{{M}^{i}}}{{{\rho }^{i}}}$, where Cⁱ, Mⁱ and ρⁱ are the mole fraction, mole weight and density of element i, respectively.). The data of the present Nb5 and Nb8 composites is also displayed.
