The influence of deformation temperature and strain rate on the flow stress of Ti-6Al-2Zr-IMo-IV alloy was studied. Based on the experimental data sets, the high temperature deformation behavior of Ti-6A1-2Zr-IMo-IV alloy was presented using the intelligent method of artificial neural network (ANN). The results indicate that the predicted flow stress values by ANN model is quite consistent with the experimental results, which implies that the artificial neural network is an effective tool for studying the hot deformation behavior of the present alloy. In addition, the development of graphical user interface is implemented using Visual Basic programming language.展开更多

The large-thickness Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V titanium alloy plate was produced by β-processing,following with duplex anneal in(α+β) phase field and β anneal,respectively. The fatigue crack propagation rate(da/dN) test and the fracture toughness(KⅠC) test of Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V were performed. The results show that the annealing in(α+β) phase field,with increasing anneal temperature,prior β grain size and α colony size of Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V remained constant approximately,α lamella mean size increases gradually;KⅠCincreases and da/dN decreases respectively;when annealing in β phase field,prior β grain size and α colony size increases sharply,da/dN decreases drastically. β anneal is better than anneal in(α+β) phase field as to improve the damage tolerance property of Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V.展开更多

The results show that the volume fraction of the primary α(αp) phase decreases with the increase of solution temperature, and the length of the secondary α phase (αs) decreases while its width increases with the increase of aging temperature. Yield and tensile strengths decrease with the increase of solution temperature, while increase with the increase of aging temperature. A good balance of tensile strength and ductility of the alloy is obtained under solution of 800℃ for 2 h plus aging of 640℃ for 8 h, in which the tensile strength is 1434 MPa and the elongation is 7.7%. The coarsening αs phase makes crack propagation paths deflected and tortuous, which increases the crack propagation resistance and improves the ductility and fracture toughness.展开更多
