A mechanical comparison of alpha and beta phase biomedical TiTa lattice structures

Recent orthopaedic implant alloy design has focused on β-type Ti alloys, as the body centred cubic (BCC) crystal structure has the tendency to be characterised by a low elastic modulus. Nevertheless, the currently most used metal is Ti-6Al-4V, which mainly retains a hexagonal closed packed (HCP) cry...
