Analysis of microlayer defects of a functionally graded titanium alloy by electrical discharge machining

This paper reports on the surface characteristics of a functionally graded Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy during Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM). The electrical discharge input parameters employed for this work are current (I), on-time (Ton), off-time (Toff) and spark gap voltage (V). The electrode...
