The Ti–20Zr–10Ta alloy exhibited a reversible transformation with the high martensite transformation temperature of 500oC and good thermal stability. The alloy displayed the elongation of 15% and a maximum recovery stain of 5.5% with 8% pre-strain.展开更多

According to the electronic structures of these metals, their potential curves, cohesive energies, lattice parameters, elasticity and the dependence of linear thermal expansion coefficients on temperature were calculated. The electronic structures and characteristic properties of these metals with fcc and hcp structures and liquid states were studied.展开更多
