TL;DR: In this article, a serial of Ti-33Zr-xFe-yCr alloys was designed with an expectation to obtain Laves phase in microstructure and then these alloys were produced using cold crucible levitation melting.

TL;DR: Among the investigated alloys, Ti-26Nb-4Zr-5Mn demonstrates the highest true yield strength, dislocation density, and hardness along with improved strainhardening ability in terms of strain hardening indices.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hexagonal close-packed C14 type Laves phase along with a dominant fraction of body-centered cubic β phase are formed in all the as-cast Ti-xZr-7Fe-ySn alloys except in Ti-25Zr 7Fe-2Sn, where the volume fraction of the Laves-C14 phase is found to be sensitive to the quantities of Zr and Sn.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of Ti-25Nb-8Zr-xCr alloys were designed based on DV-Xα cluster method and e / a ¯ - Δr ¯ diagram with an anticipation to obtain high plasticity and significant strain hardening.

TL;DR: Yield strength is influenced by solid solution and grain boundary strengthening while hardness is affected by the amount of constituent phases in each alloy, particularly Ti-25Nb-4Mn-1Sn alloy.
