The Effect of Hot Deformation Parameters on Microstructure Evolution of the α-Phase in Ti-6Al-4V (original) (raw)

The paper investigates the effects of hot deformation parameters on the microstructure evolution of the α-phase in Ti-6Al-4V during isothermal hot forging. Through a series of high-temperature deformation tests, it examines changes in lath morphology and the influence of various strain rates and temperatures on the microstructural characteristics. The study identifies mechanisms of globularization and deformation texture, providing insights into optimizing processing techniques for improved mechanical properties in titanium alloys.
