Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of stereology microstructure quantitative characterization, and particularly relates to a quantitative calculation method for mixed microstructure morphology distribution of titanium alloy based on stereology. BACKGROUND

[0002] Titanium alloy is a microstructure sensitive material, and the microstructure morphology evolution in the forming manufacturing process is extremely complex. Moreover, the microstructure morphology characteristics of titanium alloy determine its macroscopic mechanical properties, so accurate quantitative analysis of the microstructure morphology distribution of titanium alloy is the key to establishing a microstructure-mechanical property prediction model. In the mixed microstructure of titanium alloy, there are various morphologies of grains such as equiaxed alpha, grain boundary alpha and lamellar alpha, and the lamellar alpha can be in parallel clusters or interweaving. These complex microstructure morphologies bring great challenges to the quantitative analysis of titanium alloy microstructure.

[0003] The prior art discloses a method for quantitatively analyzing the grain morphology distribution probability by using a two-point correlation function method or a linear path function method. The method determines a line segment with a length of r and a direction of θ, 0° is the horizontal direction, and the counterclockwise direction is positive. The left end point of the line segment is the starting point, and the right end point is the terminal point. The pixel points in the image are scanned point by point, and the distribution probability of the line segment starting point and terminal point in the same phase or different phases and different microstructure grains is calculated.

[0004] However, the method cannot realize the quantitative analysis of the interweaving degree of lamellar alpha, nor can it realize the statistical analysis of the lamellar alpha and lamellar alpha grain morphology distribution probability, which makes the quantitative results unable to comprehensively and truly reflect the mixed microstructure characteristics of titanium alloy, and inevitably leads to low calculation accuracy of the microstructure-mechanical property prediction model, resulting in inaccurate control of the mechanical properties of titanium alloy forming manufacturing.
