Mechanical Spectroscopy of Biocompatible Metal Alloys
摘要
The work presents the results of Mechanical Spectroscopy (MS) tests carried out on AZ31, Co28Cr6Mo and Ti6Al4V alloys, materials of great interest for biomedical applications. Measures of dynamic modulus and internal friction (Q−1) vs. temperature reveal microstructural mechanisms not otherwise detectable through more conventional techniques. The results are discussed in view of the biomedical applications of these materials.
