摘要
Most of the structural alloys’applications are under static,dynamic,and cyclic forms of loading.Ti-5553 alloy in the beta phase field is being investigated to confirm the mechanism of deformation and phase transformation upon quasi-static and dynamic compression.The Ti-5553 alloy was heat-treated at 900℃ (almost 50℃ above beta transus temperature)for one hour of soaking time followed by air quenching to achieve a fullyβphase field.After that,Dynamic compression(DC)by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar(SHPB)and Quasi-static compression(QSC)were performed at a strain rate of~10^3)/s and 10^(-3)/s,respectively.Recovered specimens were thoroughly examined by using different tools,such as an Optical microscope(OM),Scanning electron microscope(SEM),High-resolution transmission electron microscope(HRTEM),and Electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)to get the reliable data for justification of logical conclusions.It is found that the dominating mode of deformation was dislocation slip along with twinning({332}<113>)to some extent in both of QSC and DC,but sliding&spalling of the grain boundary is observed more in the former.Stress-induced phase transformation,i.e.,βtoα"andβtoω,took place in the grains saturated with dislocation slips,where the former transformation occurred simultaneously with{332}<113>twinning,whileβtoωtransformation was completed when a set of two adjacent(110)_(β)planes covered±1/6th of the total separation distance between two(next to each other)(111)_(β)planes,by equal but opposite shear in(111)_(β)direction,and it caused 3%shrinkage of two closed packed(110)_(β)planes after transformation.
