This article demonstrates the difference in the flow curves of an AZ31 magnesium alloy and S235JR structural steel wire caused by non-linear strain rates during uniaxial tensile and compression testing at elevated temperatures. Throughout tensile deformation, the traverse velocity of the testing machine has to be adapted according to the current elongation of the specimen, thus accelerating, to ensure a constant strain rate during the admission of the stress-strain curve. The equivalent is necessary during compression testing, where the traverse velocity of the testing machine needs to decelerate ensuring a constant strain rate. Nevertheless, tensile and compression tests are performed with constant traverse velocity, which lead to divergent flow curves in comparison to deformation controlled traverse velocities. The results of the research show the difference in flow behaviour of magnesium and steel wire, when the temperature and strain rate are varied in conjunction with constant and deformation controlled traverse velocities.

Fine grains were developed in Mg-3Al-1Zn (AZ31) alloy by isothermal caliber rolling at five different temperatures in the range of 250-450°C. The samples of different grain sizes were deformed by constant strain rate and differential strain rate test techniques over the temperature range of 220-450 °C and strain rate range of 10-5 to 10-1 s-1. The effects of grain size, test temperature and strain rate on flow stSuperscSuperscript textript textress were analysed to develop the constitutive relationship for supSuperscript texterplastic deformation. The parameters of the constitutive relationship obtained from the constant strain rate tests and differential strain rate tests were used to find out the material constant A of the constitutive relationship.

This note presents a virtual displacement approach to analyze the constant rate of strain consolidation test. It yields simplified “exact” equations within the weighted residual context for interpreting test data. Equations corresponding to larger time factors are similar to those presented in the literature, although the transient effects are clearer than in previous formulations. An advantage of the framework is that assumptions concerning the uniformity of properties through a sample can be relaxed. The derivation shows that E must be constant for the coefficient of consolidation to be independent of position. Depending on the sequencing of sublayers, it is shown that basal pore pressure can be higher or lower for layered media compared with uniform material when allowing E to vary, even though cv is kept constant.

The deformation characteristics of the WE54 magnesium alloy reinforced by 13% of SiC particles have been investigated in tension at elevated temperatures. Composite material was prepared by powder metallurgy technique. The strain rate sensitivity parameter m has been estimated by the abrupt strain rate changes (SRC) method. SRC tests and tensile tests with constant strain rate ( ) were performed at temperatures from 350 to 500 °C. Increased ductility has been found at high strain rates. The corresponding m value was 0.3. The activation energy Q has been estimated. Microstructure evolution has been observed by the light microscope and scanning electron microscope.

Al-W alloy billets were produced by powder pressing at room temperature and subsequent hot pressing. Quantities of billets were compressed at constant strain rate and temperature with 60% height reduction on Gleeble-3800 thermal simulation testing machine to study the plastic flow behaviors of the test alloy. The temperature of the compression processes ranged from 450 to 570oC. The strain rate was varied between 0.001 and 1s−1. The regularity of flow stress for the test alloy varied at elevated temperatures was studied. The activation energy during hot deformation is 757.943 kJ/mol by calculated, and the Arrhenius constitutive relation model was established. Keywords: Al-W alloy, powder metallurgy, thermal simulation, constitutive model
