By means of transparent plastic dies, cylindrical samples of single crystal and polycrystalline ice were extruded into rods of one quarter the original cross-section area. The deformation was carried out at −5 °C and a mean strain rate of about 10−2 s−1. With the aid of polarized light, the formation of cracks and the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization were studied. The experiments of Steinemann, and more recent results in metals suggest that, during such plastic flow, two types of dynamic recrystallization are involved. At low strain rates, the recrystallization is periodic, leading to rapid increases in strain rate at constant applied stress; at higher strain rates, the recrystallization is continuous and the strain rate is constant. The possibility that dynamic recrystallization of the periodic type is associated with glacier surges is discussed.

AbstractThis paper presents and discusses the results of constant deformation-rate tests on laboratory-prepared polycrystalline ice. Strain-rates ranged from 10−7to 10−1s−1, grain–size ranged from 1.5 to 5.8 mm, and the test temperature was −5°C.At strain-rates between 10−7and 10−3s−1, the stress-strain-rate relationship followed a power law with an exponent ofn= 4.3 calculated without regard to grain-size. However, a reversal in the grain-size effect was observed: below a transition point near 4 × 10−6s−1the peak stress increased with increasing grain-size, while above the transition point the peak stress decreased with increasing grain-size. This latter trend persisted to the highest strain-rates observed. At strain-rates above 10−3s−1the peak stress became independent of strain-rate.The unusual trends exhibited at the lower strain-rates are attributed to the influence of the grain-size on the balance of the operative deformation mechanisms. Dynamic recrystallization appears to intervene in the case of the finer-grained material and serves to lower the peak stress. At comparable strain-rates, however, the large-grained material still experiences internal micro-fracturing, and thin sections reveal extensive deformation in the grain-boundary regions that is quite unlike the appearance of the strain-induced boundary migration characteristic of the fine-grained material.

Inconel®718 is a well-known nickel-based super-alloy used for high-temperature applications after thermomechanical processes followed by heat treatments. This work describes the evolution of the microstructure and the stresses during hot deformation of a prototype alloy named IN718WP produced by powder metallurgy with similar chemical composition to the matrix of Inconel®718. Compression tests were performed by the thermomechanical simulator Gleeble®3800 in a temperature range from 900 to 1025 °C, and strain rates scaled from 0.001 to 10 s−1. Flow curves of IN718WP showed similar features to those of Inconel®718. The relative stress softening of the IN718WP was comparable to standard alloy Inconel®718 for the highest strain rates. Large stress softening at low strain rates may be related to two phenomena: the fast recrystallization rate, and the coarsening of micropores driven by diffusion. Dynamic recrystallization grade and grain size were quantified using metallography. The recrystallization grade increased as the strain rate decreased, although showed less dependency on the temperature. Dynamic recrystallization occurred after the formation of deformation bands at strain rates above 0.1 s−1 and after the formation of subgrains when deforming at low strain rates. Recrystallized grains had a large number of sigma 3 boundaries, and their percentage increased with strain rate and temperature. The calculated apparent activation energy and strain rate exponent value were similar to those found for Inconel®718 when deforming above the solvus temperature.

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.

Strain Rate Change

The design of industrial hot metal forming processes nowadays is mostly carried out using commercial Finite Element (FE) software codes. For precise FE simulations, reliable material properties are a crucial factor. In bulk metal forming, the most important material property is the materials flow stress, which determines the form filling and the necessary forming forces. At elevated temperatures, the flow stress of steels is determined by strain hardening, dynamic recovery and partly by dynamic recrystallization, which is dependent on strain rate and temperature. To simulate hot forming processes, which are often characterized by rapidly changing strain rates and temperatures, the flow stress is typically derived from flow curves, determined at arbitrary constant temperatures and strain rates only via linear interpolation. Hence, the materials instant reaction and relaxation behavior caused by rapid strain rate changes is not captured during simulation. To investigate the relevance of the relaxation behavior for FE simulations, trails with abrupt strain rate change are laid out and the effect on the material flow stress is analyzed in this paper. Additionally, the microstructure evolution due to the strain rate change is investigated. For this purpose, cylinder compression tests of an industrial case hardening steel are conducted at elevated temperatures and different strain rates. To analyze the influence of rapid strain rate changes, changes by one power of ten are performed at a strain of 0.3. As a reference, flow curves of the same material are determined at the initial and final constant strain rate. To investigate the microstructure evolution, compression samples are quenched at different stages, before and after the strain rate change. The results show that the flow curves after the strain rate change tend to approximate the flow curves measured for the final strain rate. However, directly after the strain rate change significant differences between the assumed instant flow stress and the real material behavior can be observed. Furthermore, it can be shown that the state of dynamic recrystallization at the time of the strain rate change influences the material response and relaxation behavior resulting in different slopes of the investigated flow curves after the strain rate change.

During the metal hot working process, the dislocation density will vary with strain and strain rate, and the variation of the dislocation density will affect the grain evolution subsequently. The cellular automaton (CA) method is an effective technique used to simulate the grain evolution of materials. In this work, a dynamic recrystallization (DRX) model of titanium alloy TC11 under varied strain rates was established by the use of cellular automaton method and verified by experimental observation. Two types of loading processes called “begin fast and then slowly” and “begin slowly and then fast” were simulated to investigate the titanium alloy TC11 grain evolution processes during hot working. The simulation results are in good coincidence with experimental data. Both cellular automaton simulation and experimental results show that the flow stresses and DRX transformation percentage during hot working process of the TC11 alloy are closely related not only to the strain rate but also to the loading sequence. Compared to the “begin slowly and then fast” loading sequence, the flow stress with the “begin fast and then slowly” loading sequence is relatively smaller under the same strain rates, and the DRX transformation percentage is relatively larger.

Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behaviour in a newly developed Cu-Sn-P alloy for heat exchangers and tubes was systematically investigated. For this purpose, Cu-Sn-P alloys with different content of Sn were deformed in compression at temperatures between 1073 K and 1213 K and at various strain rates from 2 x 10-4 s-1 to 2 x 10-1 s-1. The onset of DRX was more advanced with increasing temperature and with decreasing strain rate. Full DRX was not achieved at the testing conditions of lower temperature and higher strain rate even after straining to ε = 1.0. This tendency was more significant in the alloy with higher Sn content. With increasing Sn content, the flow stress and the obtained grains size became higher and finer, respectively. These experimental results indicate the important role of Sn for strengthening and microstructual control.

Zk60 Magnesium Alloy

The high temperature compressive tests of squeeze casting ZK60 magnesium alloy in the testing temperature range of 523-723K and strain rate range of 0.001-10s-1 were performed on Gleeble-1500D thermal simulator testing machine. Optical microscopy was performed to elaborate on the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) grain growth. TEM observation indicated that the mechanical twinning, dislocation slip, and dynamic recrystallization are the materials typical deformation features. Variations of flow behavior with deformation temperature as well as strain rate were analyzed. Analysis of the flowing deformation behavior and microstructure observations indicated that the flow localization was observed at lower testing temperature and higher strain rates. Dynamic recrystallization occurred at higher testing temperature and moderate strain rates, which improved the ductility of the material. The results indicated that at the testing temperatures lower than 573K and strain rates higher than 1s-1, the material exhibited flow instability manifesting as bands of flow localizations. These temperatures and strain rates should be avoided in processing the material. Dynamic recrystallization occurs in the temperature range 573-723K and the strain rate range 0.001-0.1s-1. The number of dynamic recrystallization grains is less at lower temperature and higher strain rate than higher temperature and lower strain rate. The dynamic recrystallization is inadequate at 573-623K while the dynamic recrystallization grain growth has been observed in the temperature range of 673-723K. Therefore it may be considered that the optimum processing parameters for hot working of squeeze casting ZK60 magnesium alloy are 648K and 0.001-0.01s-1, at which fine dynamic recrystallization microstructure can be obtained.

Abstract. It is vital to understand the mechanical properties of flowing ice to model the dynamics of ice sheets and ice shelves and to predict their behaviour in the future. We can increase our understanding of ice physical properties by performing deformation experiments on ice in laboratories and examining its mechanical and microstructural responses. However, natural conditions in ice sheets and ice shelves extend to low temperatures (≪-10 ∘C), and high octahedral strains (> 0.08), and emulating these conditions in laboratory experiments can take an impractically long time. It is possible to accelerate an experiment by running it at a higher temperature in the early stages and then lowering the temperature to meet the target conditions once the tertiary creep stage is reached. This can reduce total experiment run-time by > 1000 h; however it is not known whether this could affect the final strain rate or microstructure of the ice and potentially introduce a bias into the data. We deformed polycrystalline ice samples in uniaxial compression at −2 ∘C before lowering the temperature to either −7 or −10 ∘C, and we compared the results to constant-temperature experiments. Tertiary strain rates adjusted to the change in temperature very quickly (within 3 % of the total experiment run-time), with no significant deviation from strain rates measured in constant-temperature experiments. In experiments with a smaller temperature step (−2 to −7 ∘C) there is no observable difference in the final microstructure between changing-temperature and constant-temperature experiments which could introduce a bias into experimental results. For experiments with a larger temperature step (−2 to −10 ∘C), there are quantifiable differences in the microstructure. These differences are related to different recrystallisation mechanisms active at −10 ∘C, which are not as active when the first stages of the experiment are performed at −2 ∘C. For studies in which the main aim is obtaining tertiary strain rate data, we propose that a mid-experiment temperature change is a viable method for reducing the time taken to run low-stress and low-temperature experiments in the laboratory.

The microstructural variation and high-temperature flow features of a Ti-55511 alloy in the β region are studied by utilizing double-stage compression with a stepped strain rate. The results demonstrate that the stresses in the latter stage of hot compression markedly reduce as the strain at the previous stage or the strain rate at the previous/latter stage drops. Moreover, the annihilation/interaction of substructures is promoted, and the distinct refinement of the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) in the β grain can be found. However, the coarsening of the β grain and the consumption of dislocation substructures are accelerated at high temperatures. Furthermore, the principal DRX nucleation mechanism of the Ti-55511 alloy during double-stage compression with a stepped strain rate in the β region is discontinuous DRX. Additionally, by using the microstructural variation characteristics related to the forming parameters, a physical mechanism equation is modeled to forecast the forming features, the DRX fraction, and the size of the β grain in the investigated alloy. The forecasted results are in accordance with the tested results, indicating that the established model can accurately forecast the microstructure variation and flow features of the studied alloy.

The influence of temperature and strain rate on the hot tensile properties of 0Cr18AlSi ferritic stainless steel, a potential structural material in the ultra-supercritical generation industry, was investigated at temperatures ranging from 873 to 1123 K and strain rates of 1.7 × 10−4–1.7 × 10−2 s−1. The microstructural evolution linked to the hot deformation mechanism was characterized by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). At the same strain rate, the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength decrease rapidly from 873 K to 1023 K and then gradually to 1123 K. Meanwhile, both yield strength and ultimate tensile strength increase with the increase in strain rate. At high temperatures and low strain rates, the prolonged necking deformation can be observed, which determines the ductility of the steel to some extent. The maximum elongation is obtained at 1023 K for the strain rates of 1.7 × 10−3 and 1.7 × 10−2 s−1, while this temperature is postponed to 1073 K once decreasing the strain rate to 1.7 × 10−4 s−1. Dynamic recovery (DRV) and continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) are found to be the main softening mechanisms during the hot tensile deformation. With the increase of temperature and the decrease of strain rate (i.e., 1123 K and 1.7 × 10−4 s−1), the sub-grain coalescence becomes the main mode of CDRX that evolved from the sub-grain rotation. The gradual decrease in strength above 1023 K is related to the limited increase of dynamic recrystallization and the sufficient DRV. The area around the new small recrystallized grains on the coarse grain boundaries provides the nucleation site for cavity, which generally results in a reduction in ductility. Constitutive analysis shows that the stress exponent and the deformation activation energy are 5.9 and 355 kJ·mol−1 respectively, indicating that the dominant deformation mechanism is the dislocations motion controlled by climb. This work makes a deeply understanding of the hot deformation behavior and its mechanism of the Al-bearing ferritic stainless steel and thus provides a basal design consideration for its extensive application.
