Abstract

Microstructure features including the morphology and texture of constituent phases play an important role in the mechanical properties of Ti-55531 high strength titanium alloy. However, the underlying understanding from the micromechanical aspect is still lacking. In the present work, the effect of microstructure on the micro-mechanical behavior of Ti-55531 alloy was investigated by high-energy X-ray diffraction. For two typical microstructures of Ti-55531 alloy, the micromechanical behavior including lattice strains of oriented grains are determined. Furthermore, the stress partitioning between alpha and beta phase and internal microstress evolution in the specimens with different microstructures are discussed. In combination with the microstructure characterization, the corresponding mechanism for microstructure influence on the mechanical properties is discussed. It is found that, for the specimens with different types of microstructures, stress partitioning between constituent phases is obviously different. The results show that the alpha phase stress is higher than that of p phase in the specimen with the bimodal microstructure (BM), while the beta phase is subjected to much higher stress than a phase in the specimen with the lamellar microstructure (LM). For the specimen with BM, the morphology of alpha phase leads to a remarkable difference in the microscopic deformation behavior between alpha(p) (primarymore »« less

The results show that the < 200 >//LD fiber texture of beta phase leads to higher intergranular microstress in the specimen with BM. The interphase microstress is more remarkable in the specimen with LM.

Influence of duplex ageing on secondary α precipitates and mechanical properties of the near β-Ti alloy Ti-55531

Journal Article Ren, Lei ; Xiao, Wenlong ; Han, Weizhong ; ... - Materials Characterization

Highlights: • High strength β-Ti alloys are widely used for their excellent properties. • To reach an excellent combination of strength and ductility, it is attractive to explore the right heat treatment system. • While compared to the conventional single-step ageing process, duplex ageing could change the development and refinement of secondary α precipitations in near/metastable β-Ti alloys resulting varying in performance. • Therefore it is of scientific significance and engineering value to understand the influence of duplex ageing on the formation of secondary α precipitates and mechanical properties for this type of alloy. - Abstract: This paper presents themore »« less

Crystal plasticity analysis of stress partitioning mechanisms and their microstructural dependence in advanced steels

Journal Article Pu, Chao ; Gao, Yanfei - Journal of Applied Mechanics

Two-phase advanced steels contain an optimized combination of high yield strength and large elongation strain at failure, as a result of stress partitioning between a hard phase (martensite) and a ductile phase (ferrite or austenite). Provided with strong interfaces between the constituent phases, the failure in the brittle martensite phase will be delayed by the surrounding geometric constraints, while the rule of mixture will dictate a large strength of the composite. To this end, the microstructural design of these composites is imperative especially in terms of the stress partitioning mechanisms among the constituent phases. Based on the characteristic microstructures ofmore »« less

Strengthening mechanism of high strength titanium alloys. Technical report Dec 1969--Dec 1970. [Ti--5. 25--Al--5. 5V--0. 9Fe--0. 5Cu]

Technical Report Greenfield, M A ; Margolin, H

The investigation to relate fracture toughness, void formation and growth and ductility to microstructural features in an alpha--beta alloy, Ti--5.25Al--5.5V--0.9Fe--0.5Cu continued. New data confirm the earlier reported relationships between fracture toughness and microstructure of both equiaxed alpha and Widmanstatten plus grain boundary in aged beta matrix morphologies. In equiaxed alpha structures, fracture toughness depends linearly upon the grain boundary area per unit volume, S/sub V/, and is independent of equiaxed alpha particle size or spacing. In a grain boundary alpha structure, fracture toughness depends both on S/sub V/ and, within limits, linearly on the thickness of the grain boundary alpha.more »« less

On the generation of microstrains during the plastic deformation of Waspaloy

Journal Article Stone, H J ; Holden, T M ; Reed, R C - Acta Materialia

Neutron diffraction has been used to characterize the development of microstrains during the plastic deformation of the polycrystalline nickel-base alloy, Waspaloy. Two types of experiment were performed: (1) in situ tensile testing on the diffractometer to determine the response parallel and perpendicular to the loading direction and (2) measurement of the orientation dependence of the microstrain accumulation using a Eulerian cradle. Large residual microstrains are shown to develop. Along the loading direction, these are typically tensile in the {gamma}{prime} phase and compressive in the {gamma} phase; however, the values are sensitive to both the orientation of the diffracting crystallite andmore »« less
