New insights into ω-embrittlement in high misfit metastable β-titanium alloys: Mechanically-driven ω-mediated amorphization

ω-embrittlement is ubiquitous in metastable β-titanium (Ti) alloys, while the fundamental understanding on the damage-fracture mechanism hitherto remains elusive. In this study, we systematically investigate ω-embrittlement of high misfit Ti-10Cr (wt.%) alloys by coupling experiments and first-princ...
