Finite Element Modeling of 3D Turning of Titanium.pdf

Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and high temperature materials. Titanium has the highest strength-weight ratio of all commonly used metals up to 550 C. Titanium is the ninth most abundant element and the fourth most abundant metal in earth’s crust. However, the extraction and processing cost to produce raw Ti material is high due to its high free energy for reduction of oxide. The high cost has limited Ti to the military, aerospace, racing, medical, and other, applications in which the material cost is not a key factor.
