Abstract

The fracture topography of two-phase titanium alloys is generally complex and reflects features of the underlying microstructure, including crystallographic orientation. This article describes the correlation between crystallographic orientation and the elongated dimples, more commonly known as flutes, that are often observed on fracture surfaces of α and near-α titanium alloys and other hcp metals. The correlations are made by employing quantitative tilt fractography and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD).
