TL;DR: In this paper, a customized FE model for describing the microstructural changes during dry and cryogenic cutting of Ti6Al4V is presented, which addresses the importance to modify the material behavior taking into account the microstructure changes and the cooling/lubrication effects during the cutting process.

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface and subsurface modifications induced by turning operations performed on additively manufactured titanium alloys are investigated, and morphological, chemical and mechanical analyses on the pre- and post-machined samples highlight the influence of the production processes on their surface integrity underlying the need to properly redesign the machining parameters accordingly.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of pulsed laser ablation (Yb-fiber) on Ti6Al4V titanium alloy substrates for adhesive bonding was evaluated by means of SEM, XRD and wettability measurements.

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical analysis of cylindrical external turning on Electron Beam Melted (EBM) Ti6Al4V alloy is presented, where a Johnson-Cook constitutive equation is implemented as a flow stress model and adapted with respect to the wrought Ti6al4V Alloy.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of femtosecond Yb fiber laser irradiation on Ti6Al4V titanium alloy is assessed using an extensive experimental campaign carried out to survey surface properties through the use of SEM, AFM, EDS mapping and contact angle measurements.
