Investigation of Triggering Stress for Martensitic Transformation in Titanium Alloy

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The effect of the stability of β-phase (of the value of Moeq), of the thermal martensite, and of the rate of deformation on the triggering stress of martensitic transformation in alloy Ti – 10% V – 2% Fe – 3% Al is investigated. It is shown that the triggering stress increases with growth of Moeq in the presence of thermal martensite and with growth in the deformation rate from 10 – 4 to 10 – 1 sec – 1.
