The dynamic recrystallization behavior and texture evolution of surface, quarter and center layers of as-cast Fe-4.53%Si non-oriented electrical steel during hot compression were studied by optical microscope and electron backscatter diffraction. The surface layer of cast ingot exhibited elongated columnar grains with pronounced {001}<130> and {001}<120> textures, while the quarter and center layers of ingot were mainly large equiaxed grains corresponding to strong {100}<0vw> texture. During hot compression, the shear bands were easy to form in the deformed grains with higher stored energy such as {110}<001>, {014}<114> and {312}<332> grains which is conducive to promoting recrystallization. Due to that the shear band was not easy to form in the {100}<0vw> grain with lower stored energy, the large grains corresponding to strong {100}<0vw> texture in the quarter and center layers of ingot undergone obvious deformation and slight orientation transformation during hot compression process which proved the good heritability of as-cast {100} texture.

The dynamic recrystallization behavior of as-cast Ti-46.5Al-3Ta-2Cr-0.2W alloy during isothermal compression process with nominal deformation of 50% and strain rates from 0.01s to 1s was investigated by electron microscopy. The results showed that the deformation mechanism of this alloy can be concluded as grain boundary sliding and mechanical twins, which induce the final dynamic recrystallization. The phase boundary bulging was found to be the major nucleation mechanism responsible for the lamellar globularization and the formation of recrystallized γ grains inside the lamellar colony under the high strain rate. The recrystallized γ grains induced by the twinning is the main mechanism for refining α2 lamellar microstructures under low strain rate.

High-temperature compression and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques were used in a systematic investigation of the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior and texture evolution of the Inconel625 alloy. The true stress–true strain curves and the constitutive equation of Inconel625 were obtained at temperatures ranging from 900 to 1200 °C and strain rates of 10, 1, 0.1, and 0.01 s−1. The adiabatic heating effect was observed during the hot compression process. At a high strain rate, as the temperature increased, the grains initially refined and then grew, and the proportion of high-angle grain boundaries increased. The volume fraction of the dynamic recrystallization increased. Most of the grains were randomly distributed and the proportion of recrystallized texture components first increased and then decreased. Complete dynamic recrystallization occurred at 1100 °C, where the recrystallized volume fraction and the random distribution ratios of grains reached a maximum. This study indicated that the dynamic recrystallization mechanism of the Inconel625 alloy at a high strain rate included continuous dynamic recrystallization with subgrain merging and rotation, and discontinuous dynamic recrystallization with bulging grain boundary induced by twinning. The latter mechanism was less dominant.
