"We just haven't had time to look for them." Titanium is used in jet aircraft, and although both engineers termed the idea of using TRIP-processed materials to prevent metal fatigue "pure speculation" at this point, it is not beyond the realm of possibility. Other conceivable uses of TRIP steel: storage tanks to withstand the super-coolness (as much as -450° F.) of liquid helium, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen; chemical-processing...
