Bulk nanoSPD materials are materials with nanostructural features, such as nanograins,
nanoclusters, or nanotwins, produced by severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques. Such …

Abstract Biocompatible β Ti–45Nb (wt%) alloys were subjected to different methods of
severe plastic deformation (SPD) in order to increase the mechanical strength without …

The high pressure torsion (HPT) of various binary Ti alloys with β-stabilizers (Fe, Co, Ni, Mo,
Nb) was studied. Before HPT, the samples were annealed and contained (i) pure β …

The melting of coarse-and fine-grained Al–Mg alloys was studied by the differential
scanning calorimetry (DSC). The transition from incomplete to complete wetting of grain …

Potential application of the Tisingle bond 45Nb (mass%) alloy in biomedicine as a hard-
tissue replacement material puts the improvement of the alloy mechanical and biological …

Describing dynamic recrystallisation is challenging with existing material characterisation
tools, which are typically based on grain boundary character distribution. This is one barrier …

We present electronic structure calculations results on Ti, Nb and TiNb model systems
seeking for the electronic origin of structural instabilities. It came out that the β-Ti instability is …

Three titanium alloys with 0.5, 6, and 9 wt.% iron were investigated, and the samples were
pre-annealed in three different regions of the Ti–Fe phase diagram, namely β, α+ β, and α+ …

The microstructural characteristic evolution was investigated during thermomechanical
processing of Ti-29Nb-9Ta-10Zr (wt%) alloy, which consisted of, in a first stage, in a Multi …

Pure titanium due to its high corrosion resistance, low stiffness and good mechanical
properties is commonly used in medicine for orthopaedic applications. However, its material …
