Microstructure and properties of additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V alloy under dynamic impact
An investigation into the rate-dependent mechanical response and microstructural evolution of Ti-6Al-4V produced by additive manufacturing (AM) is presented. Three strain rate levels (1439 s−1, 2334 s−1, and 3302 s−1) were applied via Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) testing. The as-built alloy consists mainly of α...
