A processing map plays a major role in indicating safe and failure regions of a process conducted in a hot working regime. It also shows the response of a material, by indicating changes in the microstructural evolution through temperature. In the present study, a processing map has been developed depending on the flow stress data of Ti-6Al-4V alloy sheet in a strain rate range of 10−2 /s to 10−4 /s and over a temperature range of 700°C to 900°C in order to identify the presence of superplasticity region. The flow stress data have been acquired on the basis of temperature, strain and strain rate by conducting hot uniaxial tensile tests. Based on this, a power dissipation map is obtained to show the percentage of efficiency, as it is directly related to the amount of internal entropy produced. In addition, an instability map is also obtained, as it identifies the flow instability that are to be avoided during hot working process. Finally, a processing map has been established by overlaying instability map on efficiency map. The results clearly reveal that the superplastic deformation occurs within a temperature range of 750°C to 900°C at a strain rate of 10−4 /s, without any flow instability in this region.

The hot working behavior of Mg-3Sn-2Ca alloy has been investigated in the temperature range 300–500 oC and strain rate range 0.0003–10 s-1, with a view to evaluate the mechanisms and optimum parameters of hot working. For this purpose, a processing map has been developed on the basis of the flow stress data obtained from compression tests. The stress-strain curves exhibited steady state behavior at strain rates lower than 0.01 s-1 and at temperatures higher than 350 oC and flow softening occurred at higher strain rates. The processing map exhibited two dynamic recrystallization domains in the temperature and strain rate ranges: (1) 300–420 oC and 0.0003–0.003 s-1, and (2) 420–500 oC and 0.003–1.0 s-1, the latter one being useful for commercial hot working. Kinetic analysis yielded apparent activation energy values of 161 and 175 kJ/mole in domains (1) and (2) respectively. These values are higher than that for self-diffusion in magnesium suggesting that the large volume fraction of intermetallic particles CaMgSn present in the matrix generates considerable back stress. The processing map reveals a wide regime of flow instability which gets reduced with increase in temperature or decrease in strain rate.

In order to investigate the thermal forming behavior of as-cast 42CrMo steel, the isothermal compression tests were performed on a Gleeble-1500D thermal mechanical simulator in the deformation temperature ranging from 850 to 1150°C with an interval of 100°C, the strain rate ranging from 0.05 to 5s-1 and the height reduction of 60%. On the basis of the flow stress data, dynamic materials model (DMM) and Prasad's instability criterion, the processing maps for as-cast 42CrMo steel were constructed at the strains of 0.4 and 0.6. The safe and unsafe areas and the corresponding deformation regimes were predicted during hot working, which are verified through the microstructure observation. The results indicate that the safe zones in the temperature range of 850~1150°C and strain rate of 0.05~0.35s-1, which exhibit the dynamic recovery and recrystallization. However, the flow instability domains are in the domain of deformation temperatures 850~1150°C and strain rate higher than 0.35s-1. Typical microstructure of instability is cracking, which should be avoided so as to obtain desired mechanical properties in hot processing. Finally, the forging parameters were predicted and optimized accurately by the processing maps, the temperature range of 1050~1150°C and strain rate of 0.05~0.1s-1 were recommended as the optimum deformation conditions for hot processing of as-cast 42CrMo steel.

AbstractThe deformation behavior of 49MnVS3 non-quenched and tempered steel was studied using isothermal compression tests at the temperature range of 750–1000  °C and the strain rate range of 0.1–50 s−1 on a Gleeble-3500 thermal mechanical simulator. The results indicated that the flow stress increases significantly with decreasing temperature and increasing strain rate. Under the whole deformation conditions, the dependence of flow stress on deformation temperature and strain rate was analyzed by hyperbolic sine equation. Besides, the hot deformation activation energy and stress exponent were calculated to be 323.56 kJ/mol and 6.99, respectively. In addition, the processing map based on dynamic material model was established, and the optimum processing condition of the 49MnVS3 non-quenched and tempered steel can be determined to be at the temperature range of 809–850 °C and strain rate of 36.6 s−1–50 s−1.

AbstractThe deformation behavior of 7005 alloy was studied by hot compression tests. The processing map was constructed by superimposing the instability map over the power dissipation map at a strain of 0.7 using the corrected flow stress data to eliminate the effect of friction. Microstructural examination was performed for validation. It can be found that the flow stresses increase with the decrease of deformation temperature or the increase of strain rate. At the relatively high strain rates, the material exhibits flow instability manifesting as adiabatic shear bands or flow localization. A large volume of coarse precipitations distributing in the grain boundaries in one of the peak efficiency domains: 275–325 °C/0.0005–0.001 s−1, which may result in inter-granular corrosion and spalling layer, should be avoided in the final deformed alloy. The optimum hot working domain is the temperature range of 400–450 °C and strain rate range of 0.0005–0.005 s−1, at which DRX is identified.

The compression tests of solution treatment ZL109 alloy have been performed in the compression temperature range from 250°C to 450°C and the strain rate range from 0.0005s-1to 0.5s-1. A processing map has been developed on the basis of flow stress data obtained as a function of temperature and strain rate, which revealed two domains of hot working for the alloy: one is situated at temperature between 270°C and 340°C with strain rate between 0.05s-1and 0.5s-1, the other is situated at the temperature between 380°C and 450°C with strain rate between 0.0005s-1and 0.004s-1. Combining with the processing map, the optimum parameters of hot working for ZL109 alloy are that 300°C/0.5s-1and 450°C/0.0005s-1, respectively. Microstructure observations indicated that DRX occurred in both these domains. The instable zones, i. e., adiabatic shear bands formation, wedge cracking, were also identified in the processing map and microstructural examination was performed for validation.

In this work, hot compression experiments of 300M steel were performed at 900–1150 °C and 0.01–10 s−1. The relation of flow stress and microstructure evolution was analyzed. The intriguing finding was that at a lower strain rate (0.01 s−1), the flow stress curves were single-peaked, while at a higher strain rate (10 s−1), no peak occurred. Metallographic observation results revealed the phenomenon was because dynamic recrystallization was more complete at a lower strain rate. In situ compression tests were carried out to compare with the results by ex situ compression tests. Hot working maps representing the influences of strains, strain rates, and temperatures were established. It was found that the power dissipation coefficient was not only related to the recrystallized grain size but was also related to the volume fraction of recrystallized grains. The optimal hot working parameters were suggested. This work provides comprehensive understanding of the hot workability of 300M steel in thermal compression.

AbstractAlloy 825 is a nickel-based alloy that is commonly used in applications where both high strength and corrosion resistance are required, such as tanks in the chemical, food and petrochemical industries and oil and gas pipelines. Components made from Alloy 825 are often manufactured using hot deformation. However, there is no systematic study to optimise the processing conditions reported in literature. In this study, a processing map for as-cast Alloy 825 is established to maximise the power dissipation efficiency of hot deformation in the temperature range of 950 to 1250 °C at an interval of 50 °C and strain rate range of $$0.01\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 0.01 s - 1 to $$10.0\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 10.0 s - 1 to a true strain of $$0.7$$ 0.7 using a Gleeble-3500 thermomechanical simulator. The processing conditions are also correlated to the Vickers hardness of the final material, which is also characterised using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, including electron backscattered diffraction. The true stress-true strain curves exhibit peak stresses followed by softening due to occurrence of dynamic recrystallization. The activation energy for plastic flow in the temperature range tested is approximately $$450\,{\text{ kJ mol}}^{ - 1}$$ 450 kJ mol - 1 , and the value of the stress exponent in the (hyperbolic sine-based) constitutive equation, $$n = 5.0$$ n = 5.0 , suggests that the rate-limiting mechanism of deformation is dislocation climb. Increasing deformation temperature led to a lower Vickers hardness in the deformed material, due to increased dynamic recrystallization. Raising the strain rate led to an increase in Vickers hardness in the deformed material due to increased work hardening. The maximum power dissipation efficiency is over $$35\%$$ 35 % , obtained for deformation in the temperature range 1100-1250 °C and a strain rate of $$0.01\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 0.01 s - 1 -$$0.1\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 0.1 s - 1 . These are the optimum conditions for hot working.

Selection Of

The hot deformation behavior of TC27 titanium alloy at the temperatures of 900-1150 °C and the strain rate of 0.01-10 s-1, the height reduction of 70%, was investigated in the isothermal compression test to identify the optimal extrusion parameters. The processing-map of TC27 titanium alloy was constructed based on dynamic materials model (DMM) and principle of Prasad*s instability. The conclusion shows that temperature and strain rate of deformation had a great influence on flow stress. At the beginning of deformation, the flow stress increased quickly with the augment of true strain and decreased slowly after flow stress reaching to the maximum value. Finally, flow stress tended to relatively stable condition. The flow stress decreased with the increase of temperature and increased with the increase of strain rate. The TC27 titanium alloy was sensitive to temperature and strain rate. Processing-map exhibited two peak efficiencies of power dissipation; one peak was 49% at 900°C/0.01 s-1, which dynamic recovery occured. The other peak was also 49% at 1050 °C /0.01s-1, which dynamic recrystallization occured in the domain. Besides, there were two instability areas in the processing-map which should be avoided during the extrusion. Therefore, in order to obtain the satisfactory properties, the parameters that 1050 °C and 0.01 s-1 were selected in the extrusion.
