OPTIONS WELDING PIPE AIR SPACE STRUCTURES MADE OF TITANIUM

Abstract

Introduction as the first chapter is followed by the second chapter focusing on the properties of Ti (Titanium) and its alloys. The third chapter focuses mainly on methods of Ti alloys cutting. The fourth chapter describes the methods of welding and the next chapter describes the method of quality evaluation of PSS (Pipe Space Structures) Ti alloys welds. The sixth chapter deals with the weld finishing. The seventh chapter analyses the possibility of applications in the manufacture of Ti alloy welded PSS airframe and helicopter training systems. Practical result of this thesis is calculations and comparison of parameter values for proposed PSS weight trainer helicopter, defined for the material properties of various alloys of Ti and Cr - Mo (Chrome - Molybdenum) Steel.
