Non‐central potentials are used to describe directed chemical bonding due to metalloids in amorphous metal—metalloid systems. Average atomic volume, partial pair distribution functions, local symmetries, and correlation functions of symmetry coefficients are calculated for two‐dimensional model systems produced numerically by simultaneously carrying out density variation and energy relaxation. The model reproduces qualitatively essential experimental results.
