Quantifying the effect of oxygen on micro-mechanical properties of a near-alpha titanium alloy
H. M. Gardner, P. Gopon, C. M. Magazzeni +7
Atom probe tomography (APT), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and nanoindentation were used to characterise the oxygen-rich layer on an in-service jet engine compressor disc, ma…

The Kinetics of Primary Alpha Plate Growth in Titanium Alloys
Abigail K Ackerman, Alexander J. Knowles, Hazel M. Gardner +8
The kinetics of primary alpha-Ti colony/Widmanstatten plate growth from the beta are examined, comparing model to experiment. The plate growth velocity depends sensitively both on…

Characterizing solute hydrogen and hydrides in pure and alloyed titanium at the atomic scale
Yanhong Chang, Andrew J. Breen, Zahra Tarzimoghadam +16
Ti has a high affinity for hydrogen and is a typical hydride formers. Ti-hydride are brittle phases which probably cause premature failure of Ti-alloys. Here, we used atom probe to…
