Texture heterogeneities in αp/αs titanium forging analysed by EBSD‐Relation to fatigue crack propagation

The microstructure and the local texture of a large IMI 834 forging were characterized using the Electron Back Scattered Diffraction (EBSD) technique. Crystallographic domains called macrozones and formed by a majority of primary alpha(p) grains with their axes in nearly the same direction were foun... View More
