Evaluation of NDT Techniques for Ti-Alloy Flaws in Aeronautical Industry
This project aims to establish NDT methods for detecting critical flaws in Ti-alloy parts used in the aeronautical industry. The focus is on post-treated components to reduce mass, fuel consumption, and CO2 emissions. The project includes experimental set-up, defect characterization, mechanical testing, defect modeling, and assessment. Dissemination channels target aviation research stakeholders through scientific publications and international conferences. The ultimate goal is to fabricate additively manufactured Ti6Al4V parts with enhanced safety and mechanical properties.
