Abstract
The study aims to ascertain the influences of position on fracture toughness and fracture mechanism of inertial friction welded Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr joints. The room-temperature fracture toughness values of the parent material and three other regions in the weld were evaluated by standard crack tip opening displacement tests. The micro-structure and tensile properties of the welds were also investigated. Based on the observation of fracture surface and crack propagation path, a schematic illustration of the crack propagation was formed. The results suggest that the weld metal had the worst fracture toughness. The individual fracture toughness of different regions in the weld could be explained by the various modes of crack propagation, which were affected by different microstructures.
