Some Peculiarities of Titanium Alloys Production and Usage in Aero-Space Industries. Fields and Efficiency of Application Titanium Alloys in Aero-Engines and Aircrafts.

This book owes its being to ten years of generously sponsored research, support which the authors gratefully acknowledge. … The authors have penetrated deep into previously uncharted waters and claim a first for applying thermodynamic/mathematical modellingto the complex issue of inducing phase developments which lead to enhanced mechanical properties. It is to be hoped that these new findings will become more widely known and soon put to profitable practical use.—Peter C. Gasson CEng, MIMechE, FRAeS, in The Aeronautical Journal, November 2009
