The candidacy of ninth earth abundant material, titanium is supreme when it comes to the
higher strength to weight ratio, and higher corrosive resistance. Next generation of jet …

High-strength β titanium alloys represented by near β titanium alloy and metastable β
titanium alloy are preferred materials for large-scale load-carrying structures. In order to …

Electron beam melting (EBM®)-built Ti–6Al–4V has increasingly shown great potential for
orthopedic implant and aerospace applications in recent years. The microstructure and …

The processing regime relevant to superplasticity in the Ti–6Al–4V alloy is identified. The
effect is found to be potent in the range 850–900° C at strain rates between 0.001/s and …

Surface observations are used to elucidate the deformation mechanisms responsible for the
superplastic effect in Ti–6Al–4V. High-temperature in-situ tests for tensile and shear …

The hot deformation behavior of Ti–6Al–4V with an equiaxed α–β preform microstructure is
modeled in the temperature range 750–1100° C and strain rate range 0.0003–100 s− 1, for …

An alloy design approach for titanium alloys is presented. New alloys are isolated,
manufactured and tested with an emphasis on the superplastic response. The superplastic …

Surfaces generated when machining Ti–6Al–4V alloy with PCD tools using conventional
and high pressure coolant supplies was investigated. Longer tool life was recorded when …

Superplastic forming is a promising technique for producing complex-shaped components of
hard-to-deform titanium matrix composites (TMCs). Superplastic tensile tests were …

The competition between dynamic recovery (DRV) and recrystallization (DRX) during hot
deformation has been investigated in the present paper. Isothermal compression experiment …
