Several unique characteristics of titanium necessitate special consideration when designing melting and thermomechanical processes. These include rapid heat loss, high flow stresses, strain induced porosity, high oxidation rate and texturing. The rapid heat loss is favorable in producing large segregation-free ingots. During thermomechanical working, the rapid loss of heat combined with high flow...
