Abstract
The efficient cluster packing model for bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) has been modified and extended to allow quantitative predictions of alloy compositions with high glass forming ability. The compositions calculated using this simple method compare favorably with the vast majority of the BMGs discovered in recent years. In addition, a Hf-based BMG has been obtained at the predicted composition.
