Experimental investigation of acoustic properties of titanium alloys in the temperature range of $20$–$1000^\circ$C
Annotation
Titanium and titanium-based alloys, which are widely used in various sectors of the national economy, require deep and versatile investigations of their physico-mechanical properties in a wide temperature range. Numerous abnormal physical phenomena are observed in titanium-based alloys at high temperatures, especially in the region of polymorphic transformation. In particular, in addition to significant structural variations, which influence the strength properties of the final products, near such transformations the titanium alloys (especially with a fine structure) have a tendency to superplastic deformation, which is widely applied in modern technology. Among the physical characteristics, which provide extensive information about the structural and physico-mechanical properties of titanium alloys, are the temperature expansion and acoustic properties (in particular, the speed of ultrasound, information about the temperature dependence of which is unavailable for the majority of engineering materials), which allow the Young modulus for these materials to be calculated.
