Abstract
Titanium alloys are currently used in offshore industries. The titanium alloys used in offshore plants need to have excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties because offshore plants are exposed to harsh corrosive environments. At this time, the Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy is mainly used in offshore plants because it has excellent..... More

Abstract
Inconel 718 nickel-based alloy is extensively used in the aerospace industry (e.g., gas turbine engine components) because of its excellent corrosion resistance and high mechanical properties at elevated temperatures. However, there is a certain limit to manufacturing the alloy through plastic deformation due to its high deformation resistance and complicated..... More

Abstract
The addition of expensive elements to β titanium alloys, which are widely used in the aerospace and automobile industries, causes their price to increase. Low-cost, high-strength alloy (Ti-12.1Mo-1.0Fe) was designed in this study and the compressive behaviors of this alloy were evaluated for application to automobile parts, etc. As a..... More

Abstract
Beta-type titanium alloys have a low elastic modulus, excellent cold workability, and are widely used as implant materials. High strength is possible by forming a precipitation in the β-matrix via solution treatment and aging treatment. However, beta titanium alloys require a large amount of beta-stabilizing elements (Fe, Nb, Mo, Ta,..... More

Abstract
General austenitic stainless steel has a problem with intergranular corrosion due to volatilizing chromium, which forms chromium carbide in a high temperature environment. By adding titanium as an alloying element, STS 321 stainless steel has excellent creep resistance and intergranular corrosion resistance at high temperatures, because the formation of chromium.....

Abstract
The dissimilar welding of titanium and copper by fusion welding is very difficult because the melting points of the materials are very highly different and strong brittle intermetallic compounds (IMCs) can be easily produced in welded zone and heat-affected zone, etc. Friction stir welding was employed as a type of.....
