Fracture of Titanium Alloys at High Strain Rates and under Stress Triaxiality

The present study investigates the effect of stress triaxiality on mechanical behavior and fracture of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy in a practical relevant strain rate range from 0.1 to 1000 s<sup>&#8722;1</sup>. Tensile tests were carried out on flat smoothed and notched specimens using an In...

description The present study investigates the effect of stress triaxiality on mechanical behavior and fracture of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy in a practical relevant strain rate range from 0.1 to 1000 s<sup>&#8722;1</sup>. Tensile tests were carried out on flat smoothed and notched specimens using an Instron VHS 40/50-20 servo-hydraulic test machine. High-speed video registration was conducted by Phantom 711 Camera. Strain fields on the specimen gauge area were investigated by the digital image correlation method (DIC). The fracture surface relief was studied using digital microscope Keyence VHX-600D. Stress and strain fields during testing of the Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy were analyzed by the numerical simulation method. The evolution of strain fields at the investigated loading condition indicates that large plastic deformation occurs in localization bands. The alloy undergoes fracture governing by damage nucleation, growth, and coalescence in the localized plastic strain bands oriented along the maximum shear stresses. Results confirm that the fracture of near alpha titanium alloys has ductile behavior at strain rates from 0.1 to 1000 s<sup>&#8722;1</sup>, stress triaxiality parameter 0.33 &lt; <i>&#951;</i> &lt; 0.6, and temperature close to 295 K.
