Additive manufacturing of Ti64 alloy in-situ modified with additions of boron or oxygen
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Selective laser melting (SLM) is a metal additive manufacturing process that enables the production of complex, near net shape, parts with fully functional mechanical properties. The use of titanium alloys in SLM is a good ... -
Fabrication and characterization of novel low-cost ternary titanium alloys
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Titanium and titanium alloys are commonly used in applications such as aerospace and biomedical due to their excellent mechanical properties as well as biocompatibility. However, reduction of the cost in titanium alloys ... -
Development of novel Ti-Nb based alloys for biomedical applications
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Since the advent of industrialisation, the interaction between humans and machines have become imminent. In doing so, unfortunate accidents are bound to occur, resulting in severe injury or loss. On the other hand, with ... -
Deformation behaviour and processing of a powder metallurgy metastable beta titanium alloy
(The University of Waikato, 2020)Metastable beta titanium alloys have drawn great attention and became important structural materials in the aeronautical industry thanks to their overall physical and mechanical performance including ultra-high specific ... -
Effect of thermomechanical processing on the mechanical properties of cost-effective powder metallurgy titanium-based materials
(The University of Waikato, 2020)Despite their excellent balance of properties, titanium alloys are still a niche material whose range of applications is limited by the high cost of their manufacturing. With recent developments, powder metallurgy (PM) ... -
Production and characterization of titanium based alloys with potential for antifouling and biofouling
(University of Waikato, 2017)Biofouling is the settlement and accumulation of microorganisms on the surface of a material submerged in sea water, and most of the time is an unwanted phenomenon and constitutes a financial burden. Titanium is a lightweight ... -
Study on Low-cost Alternatives for Synthesising Powder Metallurgy Titanium and Titanium Alloys
(University of Waikato, 2017)The aim of this work was to carry out research about cost effective ways for synthesising powder metallurgy Ti and Ti alloys. This was done: using low cost Ti powders produced by the hydrogenation dehydrogenation (HDH) ...
