The aim of the present work is to contribute to the characterization of the biaxial tensile behavior of commercially pure titanium, under various in-plane loading conditions at room temperature, by a non-contact digital image correlation system. Several loading conditions, with load ratio ranging from 4:0 to 0:4 and displacement rate ranging from 0.001 to 0.1 mm/s, are examined. It is found that the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of biaxial sample are greater than that of uniaxial sample, where the equi-biaxial sample shows the highest strength. It is also observed that increase in strain rate leads to remarkable improvement of tensile strength. Fractographic analysis indicates that the shape and size of dimples are load ratio and strain rate dependent. Additionally, a modified Johnson–Cook constitutive model was proposed to account for the effect of strain rate on biaxial tensile deformation. The experimental results are in good agreement with the simulated results, indicating that the proposed model is reliable to predict biaxial tensile deformation of commercially pure titanium at different strain rates.

In this work, the effect of a triaxiality stress state on the mechanical behavior and fracture of commercially pure titanium VT1-0 (Grade 2) in the range of strain rates from 0.1 to 1000 s−1 is studied. Tensile tests are carried out using a servo-hydraulic testing machine Instron VHS 40 / 50-20 on flat specimens with a constant cross-sectional area and on flat specimens with a notch. To study the effect of the complex stress state on the ultimate deformation before fracture, the samples with the notch of various radii (10, 5, 2.5 mm) are used in the experiments. Phantom V711 is employed for high-speed video registration of specimen’s deformation. Deformation fields in a working part of the sample are investigated by the digital image correlation method. It is shown that the effect of the strain rate on the ultimate deformations before fracture has a nonmonotonic behavior. An analysis of strain fields in the working part of the samples shows that the degree of uniform deformation of the working part decreases with an increase in the strain rate. At strain rates above 1000 s−1, the shear bands occur at the onset of a plastic flow. Commercially pure titanium undergoes fracture due to the nucleation, growth, and coalescence of damages in the bands of localized plastic deformation oriented along the maximum shear stresses. The results confirm that the fracture of commercially pure titanium exhibits ductile behavior at strain rates varying from 0.1 to 1000 s−1, at a triaxiality stress parameter in the range of 0.333 ≤ η <0.467, and at a temperature close to 295 K.

By using a dislocation-based plastic constitutive model for hcp metals developed by us recently, the dynamic thermomechanical response of an important industrial material, commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti), was described at different temperatures and strain rates. The constitutive parameters of the material are determined by an efficient optimization method for a globally optimal solution. The model can well predict the dynamic response of CP-Ti by the comparison with experimental data and the Nemat-Nasser-Guo model.

This study evaluated the tensile and flexural strength of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welds in specimens made of commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) compared with laser welds. Sixty cylindrical specimens (2 mm diameter x 55 mm thick) were randomly assigned to 3 groups for each test (n=10): no welding (control), TIG welding (10 V, 36 A, 8 s) and Nd:YAG laser welding (380 V, 8 ms). The specimens were radiographed and subjected to tensile and flexural strength tests at a crosshead speed of 1.0 mm/min using a load cell of 500 kgf applied on the welded interface or at the middle point of the non-welded specimens. Tensile strength data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test, and flexural strength data by the Kruskal-Wallis test (α=0.05). Non-welded specimens presented significantly higher tensile strength (control=605.84±19.83) (p=0.015) and flexural strength (control=1908.75) (p=0.000) than TIG- and laser-welded ones. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) between the welding types for neither the tensile strength test (TIG=514.90±37.76; laser=515.85±62.07) nor the flexural strength test (TIG=1559.66; laser=1621.64). As far as tensile and flexural strengths are concerned, TIG was similar to laser and could be suitable to replace laser welding in implant-supported rehabilitations.
