This Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase I program has demonstrated that titanium ally aircraft engine components can be manufactured to near-net shape by an economical advanced powder metallurgy (P/M) process without compromising the structural performance and reliability of the component. In the program Ti-6A1-4V alloys test bar materials were made by the Dynamet CHIP process. Two types of alloy test material were evaluated, one utilizing standard low cost titanium ...
This document reports the results of preliminary investigations of contaminant mobility at the Times Beach confined disposal site in Buffalo, New York. A terrestrial earthworm (Eisenia foetida) bioassay procedure was applied in the field and in a laboratory controlled-environment chamber 7 years after terminating the diposal of dredged material. Native earthworms were collected from Times Beach and a nearby reference area, and native fishes were collected from the lake within ...
