H. Moustahfid et al., STUDY OF THE BETA-ALPHA-PHASE-TRANSFORMATIONS OF A TI-64 SHEET INDUCED FROM A HIGH-TEMPERATURE BETA-STATE AND A HIGH-TEMPERATURE ALPHA-STATE(BETA), Metallurgical and materials transactions. A, Physical metallurgy andmaterials science, 28(1), 1997, pp. 51-61
The room-temperature alpha textures of Ti-64 sheets, inherited from th
e beta-alpha phase transformation of high-temperature beta textures of
the material in the beta and alpha + beta fields, respectively, have
been studied. The corresponding high-temperature beta textures were al
so determined by a method developed in our laboratory. The knowledge o
f the high-temperature beta textures allowed us to discuss the variant
selections through transformation modeling. As a result, a variant se
lection occurs in the presence of the stable alpha grains of the alpha
+ beta field.
