## Abstract There is probably no other material more closely related to aerospace than titanium and its alloys. With a density of 4.5g/cm^3^, titanium alloys are only about half as heavy as steel or Ni‐based superalloys, yielding an excellent strength‐to‐weight ratio. Furthermore, they have excepti
## Abstract This article provides an overview of metastable β titanium alloys either being utilized or being considered for use in orthopedic applications. The effects of thermomechanical processing on the mechanical properties (e.g., elastic modulus, tensile, wear and high cycle fatigue performanc
