Longitudinal and transverse wave velocities, eight kinds of elastic parameters, and dilational and shear internal frictions of Zr 55 Cu 30 Al 10 Ni 5 glassy alloy were simultaneously measured as a function of temperature in the range from 77 to 373 K, using an ultrasonic pulse method. The inflections at around 150 K for wave velocities, anisotropy factor and Poisson's ratio, and the 150 K peak of shear friction seem to correspond to one topological change (pseudo‐transition) associated with an interatomic readjustment or vacancy rearrangements. The behaviors from 77 to 125 K and 125 to 373 K are due to thermal relaxation of squeezed free volumes and entropy elasticity associated with vibrational motions of clusters, respectively, accompanied by an increase in atomic distance.
