Abstract Scope |
The effects of internal pores and crystallographic texture on ASTM E647 fatigue crack growth rate (R = 0.1) of EBM Ti-6Al-4V were investigated by studying material in the as-built and HIPed conditions as well as in two orthogonal crack growth directions with respect to the build direction. HIPing sufficiently reduced porosity (x-ray CT), and unexpected texture variation (EBSD) was observed for this material (i.e. NOT <100>β-fiber in the build direction). Significant effect on the onset of unstable crack growth was observed due to internal porosity and texture variation. |
