The effect of pre-strain for the time-dependent springback of TA2 pure titanium at room temperature

Abstract:

In order to reveal the effect of pre-strain for the time-dependent springback, the TA2 titanium sheets were drawn under different pre-strains by using the universal testing machine. The microstructures of the tested samples were both characterized by optical microscope and transmission electron microscope to infer the basis of the anelastic behavior. The results reveal that the time-dependent response of TA2 was obvious. The time-dependent-springback strain(TDSS) presented different exponential change laws in different plastic deformation zones. Both the TDSS and the amount of deformation twin increased as the pre-strain went up. The loading history and the interaction between dislocation and twin affected the TDSS and the relaxation-saturation time tIP.
