Microstructure evolution of laser solid forming of Ti Al V ternary system alloys

Morphology evolution of prior \beta grains of laser solid forming (LSF) Ti-xAl-yV (x \leq 11,y \leq 20) alloys from blended elemental powders is investigated. The formation mechanism of grain morphology is revealed by incorporating columnar to equiaxed transition (CET) mechanism during solidificatio
