Titanium and nickel alloys represent a significant metal portion of the aircraft structural and en components and the residual stresses induced by machining are very critical due to safety sustainability concerns. This paper presents experimental investigations and finite element simulat on turning of Ti–6Al–4V titanium alloy and IN100 nickel based alloy with uncoated and TiAlN co tools. Face t...

To study the dynamic shear deformation and failure properties of Ti-6Al-4V (Ti-64) alloy and Ti-5Al-5Mo-5V-1Cr-1Fe (Ti-55511) alloy, a series of forced shear tests on flat hat shaped (FHS) specimens for the two investigated materials was performed using a split Hopkinson pressure bar setup. The evolution of shear deformation was monitored by an ultra-high-speed camera (Kirana-05M). Localized sh...

The purpose of this study was to characterize the etching mechanism, namely, the etching rate and the activation energy, of a titanium dental implant in concentrated acid and to construct the relation between the activation energy and the nanoscale surface topographies. A commercially-pure titanium (CP Ti) and Ti-6Al-4V ELI surface were tested by shot blasting (pressure, grain size, blasting di...

This study investigated the impact of calcium silicate (CS) content on composition, compressive mechanical properties, and hardness of CS cermets with Ti-55Ni and Ti-6Al-4V alloys sintered at 1200°C. The powder metallurgy route was exploited to prepare the cermets. New phases of materials of Ni16Ti6Si7, CaTiO3, and Ni31Si12 appeared in cermet of Ti-55Ni with CS and in cermet of Ti-6Al-4V with C...

Laser surface modification of Ti-6Al-4V with an existing calcium phosphate coating has been conducted to enhance the surface properties. The electrochemical and mechanical behaviors of calcium phosphate deposited on a Ti-6Al-4V surface and remelted using a Nd:YAG laser at varying laser power densities (25-50 W/mm(2)) have been studied and the results are presented. The electrochemical propertie...

Biological fixation of uncemented endosseous implants requires the apposition of bone onto implant’s surface in a process named osseointegration [1]. The present study examined bone tissue response to Ti-6Al-4V alloy implanted into the rat femurs over a long time range (3 days to 6 months). The progression of implants fixation in the cancellous bone of distal epiphysis and within the medullary ...

By thermally cycling through their transformation temperature range, coarse-grained polymorphic materials can be deformed superplastically, owing to the emergence of transformation mismatch plasticity (or transformation superplasticity) as a deformation mechanism. This mechanism is presently investigated under biaxial stress conditions during thermal cycling of unalloyed titanium, Ti-6Al-4V, an...

The electrochemical behaviour of the biomedical and metallic alloys, especially in the orthopaedic implants fields, raises many questions. This study is dedicated for studying the Ti6Al-4V alloy, by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, EIS, in various physiological media,: Ringer solution, phosphate buffered solution (PBS), PBS solution and albumin, PBS solution with calf serum and PBS solut...
