Abstract

Quasi-static tensile tests and high strain rate split Hopkinson bar tensile experiments were used to mechanically characterize a commercially available Ti6Al4V alloy. The material was tested along different directions as to assess the influence of the initial crystallographic texture on the mechanical behaviour. In order to circumvent the problem of the limited thickness of the base material, special usage was made of the Linear Friction Welding technique. The results of the experiments were afterwards compared to the numerical results of a crystal plasticity code based on the viscoplastic self-consistent approach, taking into account twinning as an active deformation mode.
