Ti-15-3 alloy is a new metastable β- type titanium. The influence of hot deformation parameters on the microstructure of Ti-15-3 alloy after solution treatment has been studied by isothermal compression tests as well as quantitative metallographic analysis. On the basis of the data obtained from the tests, predicting models for equivalent grain size and recrystallization volume fraction have been established with an artificial neural network method. An FE numerical simulation system has been developed to simulate the distribution of microstructure in Ti-15-3 alloy after hot back extrusion and solution treatment by combining the neural network model with thermal-mechanical coupled rigid-viscoplastic FE model. Corresponding experimental research is performed. The agreement of the simulated results with measured ones shows that the simulation system is reliable.

Grain shape of the hot deforming alloy is an important index to character the microstructure and performance of material. The fractal theory was applied to analyze the recrystallized microstructure of Ti-15-3 alloy after hot deformation and solution treatment. The fractal dimensions of recrystallized grains were calculated by slit island method. The influence of processing parameters on fractal dimension and grain size was studied. It has been shown that the shapes of recrystallized grain boundaries are self-similar, and the fractal dimension varies from 1 to 2. With increasing deformation degree and strain rate or decreasing deformation temperature, the fractal dimension of grain boundaries increased and the grain size decreased. So the fractal dimension could characterize the grain shape and size. A neural network model was trained to predict the fractal dimension of recrystallized microstructure and the result is in excellent agreement with the experimental data.

By adopting the solid modeling software SoldEdge and the enmeshment software SRIFCast as the pre-processing platform, a Ni based alloy turbine blade was three-dimensionally modeled and automatically enmeshed. A software code for numerical simulation of fluid flow and heat transfer was developed. The Xue criterion and Niyama criterion were used to predict the position of the shrinkage defects occurring in the solidification processes of the turbine blade. The results showed that both Xue and Niyama criteria could precisely predict the shrinkage defects in the Ni based alloy turbine blade. This indicates that numerical simulation is a significant tool in improving casting quality.

The layered ternary ceramics Ti3SiC2 and Ti3AlC2 are isostructural and can form Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 solid solutions combining the advanced properties of both compounds [H.B. Zhang, Y.C. Zhou, Y.W.

Wang, Strengthening of Ti3AlC2 by incorporation of Si to form Ti3Al1-xSixC2 solid solutions, Acta. Mater. 54 (2006) 1317-1322]. In the present work, the solid solutions of Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 (x = 0, 0.25, 0.33, 0.5, 0.67, 0.75, 1) are investigated by first-principle calculations based on pseudo-potential plan-wave method within the density functional theory framework. The results show that as Al content increases in the solid solution, all the bonds have weakened to certain extents, which lead to an unstable structure both energetically and geometrically. The calculated results are compared and discussed with the reported data for the Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 solid solutions. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
