Abstract
In order to study the micromechanical behaviour of the forged Ti-1023 titanium alloy, micro-indentation experiments of the forged Ti-1023 titanium alloy were performed with various maximum indentation loads from 500 mN to 4000 mN and various loading speeds from 5.06 mN/s to 51.85 mN/s. Using the experimental data, the non-destructive instrumental approach was applied to indicate the mechanical properties just like the Young’s modulusE, microhardnessH, initial yield stressσyand strain hardening exponentnusing theP-hcurves from the tests. The result showed that the value of the indentation Young’s modulus basically remain unchanged in the range from 110 GPa to 150 GPa andHdecreased with the increase of the load, the micro-indentaion plasticity constitutive equations were obtained by using Hookean elastic and power-law plastic stress-strain equations.
