Defect structure and deformation behavior of intermetallic Ti3Al (computer simulation and TEM investigation)

Abstract

The explanation of the experimentally observed types of temperature dependences of the deformation characteristics of Ti3Al, based on computer simulation results of superdislocations core structure in different slip planes, is given. Mechanisms of micro and macrockack formation are studded. Orientation dependence of deformation behavior and fracture in Ti3Al is investigated.
