THE EFFECT OF DEFORMATION PROCESSING ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF TI-6A1-4V FOR ARMOR.

Abstract

An investigation was made to delineate the effects of deformation processing at variable interstitial content, and thermal treatment on the laboratory mechanical properties and ballistic performance of 5/8 in. thick Ti-6A1-4V armor plate. Attempts were made to correlate the effects of laboratory fracture toughness test with ballistic data. In total, this analysis tried to confirm the primary, chemical and metallurgical effects as noted above under the controlled conditions of a systematic study. (Author)
