ABSTRACTTexture analyses have been conducted on gamma titanium aluminide (γ-TiAI) strips produced using the recently developed plasma melt overflow process. The results indicated that <101] deformation textures persisted in the γ-phase while <0002>, <1010> and <1020> texture components were all observed in the α2-phase. After annealing at 1065°C/48 hrs., the γ-phase textures did not change while the α2-phase changed from a basal to a <1010> texture. It is suggested that the texture development in direct cast γ strips produced using this technique are a direct result of lattice rotations and residual stresses caused by nonuniform cooling.

This paper explores the limitations of a previously reported indentation model that correlated the depth of plastic deformation and the normal component of the grinding force. The indentation model for grinding is studied using force control grinding of gamma titanium aluminide (TiAl-γ). Reciprocating surface grinding is carried out for a range of normal force 15–90 N, a cutting depth of 20–40 μm and removal rate of 1–9 mm3/sec using diamond, cubic boron nitride (CBN) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3) abrasives. The experimental data show that the indentation model for grinding is a valid approximation when the normal component of grinding force exceeds some value that is abrasive dependent.

ABSTRACTPlates of three gamma titanium aluminide alloys have been investment cast with a wide variety of casting conditions designed to influence cooling rates. These alloys include Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb, Ti- 47Al-2Cr-2Nb+0.5at%B and Ti-45Al-2Cr-2Nb+0.9at%B. Cooling rates have been estimated with the use of thermal data from casting experiments, along with the UES ProCAST simulation package. Variations in cooling rate significantly influenced the microstructure and tensile properties of all three alloys.
