英文摘要	The metallic glasses (MGs) are conjectured to be heterogeneous-their microscopic structures are embedded with localized, soft and loosely packed atomic regions, which are termed as flow units (FUs). Detailed knowledges on the structure and dynamical features of FUs are essential for understanding the plasticity of MGs. In our study, by performing dynamical tests on MGs in molecular dynamics simulations, we show that mechanical hysteretic loops are formed in the strain-stress curves due to the undergoing plastic events. By analyzing the activated times of each atom in different dynamical tests, we map the exact locations of FUs and the distribution of their activation probability in the initial structure of MGs. More importantly, we demonstrate that the FUs are indeed liquid-like according to the Lindemann criterion of melting.; National Natural Science Foundation of China [51701005, 51271195, 51271197]; MOST Project of China [2015CB856800]; [NCET-11-0498]; SCI(E); ARTICLE; 7
