High-temperature plastic flow is the underlying process that governs the product quality in many advanced metal manufacturing technologies, such as extrusion, rolling, and welding. Data and models on the high-temperature flow behavior are generally desired in the design of these manufacturing processes. In this paper, quantitative constitutive analysis is carried out on 3Cr-1Si-1Ni ultra-high strength steel, which sheds light on the mathematic relation between the flow stress and the thermal-mechanical state variables, such as temperature, plastic strain, and strain rate. Particularly, the hyperbolic-sine equation in combination with the Zener-Hollomon parameter is shown to be successful in representing the effect of temperature and strain rate on the flow stress of the 3Cr-1Si-1Ni steel. It is found that the flow stress of the 3Cr-1Si-1Ni steel is significantly influenced by strain. The strain-dependence on flow stress is not identical at different temperatures and strain rates. In the constitutive model, the influence of strain in the constitutive analysis is successfully implemented by introducing strain-dependent constants for the constitutive equations. Fifth-order polynomial equations are employed to fit the strain-dependence of the constitutive constant. The proposed constitutive equations which considers the compensation of strain is found to accurately predict flow stress of the 3Cr-1Si-1Ni steel at the temperatures ranging from 800 °C to 1250 °C, strain rate ranging from 0.01/s to 10/s, and strain ranging from 0.05 to 0.6.

Hot simulation tests at different deformation technology parameters were carried out for a microalloyed high strength steel produced by CSP hot rolling and the stress-strain curves during deformation were measured. Based on the experimental results and the discussions of present flow stress models, a new flow stress model incorporating interactional effect of deformation temperature, strain and strain rate on flow stress was developed in the paper. Excellent agreement between measured and predicted flow stress values is obtained for new flow stress model of a microalloyed high strength steel rolled by CSP. In addition, the comparisons of flow stress prediction errors between several models and one given in the paper reveal that the prediction accuracy of new flow stress model presented in the paper is higher than other models.

Hot compression tests were carried out on a Gleeble-3800 thermal mechanical simulator in the temperature range from 700 to 900 °C and strain rate range from 0.005 to 10 s−1 to investigate the hot deformation behavior of B1500HS high-strength steel. Softening mechanisms of B1500HS high-strength steel under different deformation conditions were analyzed according to the characteristics of flow stress–strain curves. By analyzing and processing the experimental data, the values of steady flow stress, saturated stress, dynamic recovery (DRV) softening coefficient, and other factors were solved and these parameters were expressed as functions of Zener–Hollomon factors. Based on the dislocation density theory and the kinetic model of dynamic recrystallization (DRX), constitutive models corresponding to different softening mechanisms were established. The flow stress–strain curves of B1500HS predicted by a constitutive model are in good agreement with the experimental results and the correlation coefficient is . The comparison results indicate that the constitutive models can accurately reflect the deformation behavior of B1500HS high-strength steel under different conditions.

The deep drawability and bendability in hot stamping of ultra-high strength steel parts were examined. Although the cold drawability is greatly influenced by the blank shape, the limiting drawing depths for the square and circular blanks were equal for hot stamping because of small flow stress. In hot hat-shaped bending using draw-and form-type tools, the effect of the blankholder force generated with the draw-type tools on the springback was small, and the seizure for the form-type tools was smaller than that of the draw-type tools. Since both edges in contact with the electrodes are not heated for resistance heating, cracks were caused at the edges for resistance heating in the transversal directions in hot stamping of an S-rail with form-type tools, and thus it is required to control deformation of the non-heating zones.
