Since its discovery in 1954, the omega (ω) phase in titanium and its alloys has attracted
substantial attention from researchers. The β-to-ω and ω-to-α phase transformations are …

Metallic biomaterials are widely used for orthopedic application to resolve pain and improve
patients' quality of life. Among these biomaterials, beta (β)–phase titanium (Ti) alloys have …

Metastable β titanium alloys possess excellent strain-hardening capability, but suffer from a
low yield strength. As a result, numerous attempts have been made to strengthen this …

New Ti alloys are being developed to obtain materials with better properties for biomedical
applications. In order to avoid complications caused for the presence of Al and V ions in the …

The technique of surface modification using electrolytic oxidation, called micro-arc oxidation
(MAO), has been used in altering the surface properties of titanium alloys for biomedical …

Additive manufacturing (AM) has a substantial capability to produce superior and divergent
properties of titanium alloys for biomedical implants, unlike the existing conventional …

A new near β-Ti alloy Ti-5Al-3Mo-3V-2Cr-2Zr-1Nb-1Fe (Ti-5321) with a unique combination
of high strength and good fracture toughness was designed. The microstructure was tailored …

The ω phase transformation in numerous group IV transition metals plays a key role to
change the phase stability and modify mechanical properties, although its formation …

Low-modulus biomedical beta titanium alloys often suffer from low strength which limits their
use as load-bearing orthopaedic implants. In this study, twelve different Ti-Nb-Zr-Ta based …

High levels of oxygen in solid solution in Ti alloys are considered detrimental to mechanical
properties because of embrittlement concerns. In metastable β titanium alloys, the formation …
