Systems and methods in accordance with embodiments of the invention implement tailored metallic glass-based strain wave gears and strain wave gear components. In one embodiment, a method of fabricating a flexspline of a strain wave gear includes: forming a MG-based composition into a flexspline using one of a thermoplastic forming technique and a casting technique; where the forming of the MG-based composition results in a formed MG-based material; where the formed flexspline is characterized by: a minimum thickness of greater than approximately 1 mm and a major diameter of less than approximately 4 inches.

Disclosed is a gear including a resettable metallic glass. The gear of the present disclosure includes, as a base material, a resettable metallic glass, wherein the resettable metallic glass includes at least one metal element selected from each of (a) the group consisting of Ti, Zr, and Hf and (b) the group consisting of Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn, and further includes at least one metal element to maximize the complexity in the thermodynamic enthalpy of mixing among constituent elements, thereby including multiple resetting cores in various atomic-scale cluster forms in an amorphous matrix, leading to a structure with maximized structural complexity.
