In this paper, the effect of Zr on the microstructure of laser additive manufactured Ti–6Al–4V
(TC4) alloy is studied by adding different contents of Zr (0%, 15%, 30%, 45%), and the …

An innovative hybrid additive manufacturing (HAM) technology combining laser shock
peening without coating (LSPwC) and laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) has been proposed …

Limited slip systems of α structure always play a major role in hindering strength-ductility
synergy improvement of titanium (Ti) alloys. To overcome the strength-ductility trade-off of Ti …
