Recent research relating to two azb processed titanium alloys, designed for specific employment in aeroengine fan disc and aerofoil components, is described. Timetal 575 (Ti575) and Timetal 639 (Ti639) are both novel compositions that provide relatively high strength compared to Ti-6Al-4V. Static and cyclic behaviour of the two developmental alloys were evaluated at room temperature. A dwell fatigue assessment of Ti575 is reported, while the effects of unidirectional rolling and associated evolution of microtexture were studied for Ti639.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
