Abstract
In an effort to engineer damage-tolerant ingot metallurgy (IM) in situ titanium matrix composites with attractive mechanical properties, the fatigue and fracture properties of a range of high-modulus titanium a lloys reinforced with TiB whiskers were examined. The strengthening ef fects due to elastic whisker reinforcement are quantified using shear lag and rule-of-mixture models. The effects of alloy composition and m icrostructure on the fatigue behavior of the in situ titanium composit es will also be discussed.
