Wanhill, R.J.H. (author)A study was made of environmental fatigue crack propagation in 2.5 mm thick Ti-6A1-4V sheet conforming to AMS 4911, and 2.2 mm thick IMI 3l8 conforming to BS TA 10. The environments were dry argon, normal air, distilled water and 3.5 ^ aqueous NaCl. There were three alloy/orientation combinations: Ti-6A1-4V L-T, IMI 3l8 L-T and IMI 318 T-L. Test...report 1975
