In the course of designing and testing a PV fabricated from Ti-6Al-4V Titanium, we have experienced several catastrophic failures which seem to indicate that the material is reacting to stress concentration as a brittle material. Has anyone experience with this alloy?

Most Ti pressure vessels produced today use Grade 2 or Grade 7.
Grade 5 is susceptable to SCC

Why did you select that particular grade for your application ?
