Building on successful development experience of transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) steels, an analogous concept was taken to design high performance titanium alloys. This article describes a computational design framework of novel near-α TRIP titanium alloys with both high yield strength and fracture toughness for naval structural applications using a systems design approach integrating processing/structure/properties/performance relations. Predictive models including a transformation stability model based on Olson-Cohen heterogeneous martensite nucleation theory for titanium alloys was proposed. Integration of the models with CALPHAD software and databases enables parametric design optimization to meet design objectives. The developed models were calibrated with experimental measurements.
