Abstract Flow behavior of a ZK60A magnesium alloy after continuous casting and subsequent extrusion was examined in tension at a range of strain rates of 3.0×10−6 − 1.0×10−2 s−1 at temperatures of 473-623K. The results demonstrated that the alloy exhibited a maximum elongation of ~250% at 523K when tested at an initial strain rate of 1.0×10−5 s−1 and strain rate sensitivity, m, of ~0.3-0.4 and the activation energy of ~94 kJ/mol were calculated under the testing conditions. The detailed investigation suggested that the high temperature flow of the ZK60A alloy having submicrometer grains demonstrates quasi-superplastic flow behavior controlled by a dislocation viscous glide process.

Cubic (δ) bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) has been subjected to high temperature deformation over a wide range of temperatures and strain rates. Results indicate that bismuth oxide is essentially incapable of plastic deformation at temperatures below the monoclithic to cubic phase transformation which occurs at approximately 730 °C. Above the transformation temperature, however, Bi2O3 is extensively deformable. The variability of flow stress to temperature and strain rate has been quantified through the determination of phenomenological-based constitutive equations to describe its behavior at these high temperatures. Analysis of the so-determined deformation constants indicate an extremely strong sensitivity to strain rate and temperature, with values of the strain-rate sensitivity approaching values commonly cited as indicative of superplastic behavior.

ABSTRACTThe hot-workability of a two-phase (γ+α2) alloy, Ti-48A1-2Cr-2Nb, has been studied by conducting isothermal compression tests to 0.8 true strain over the temperature range of 975–1200°C at strain rates between 1×l0−1 and 3×10−3s−1. A deformation map showing temperature, strain rate, soundness of deformation, and isostress contours was constructed. Good workability is found from the low temperature/low strain rate regime to combinations of high temperature and either high or low strain rate. The upper-limit flow stress for good workability is between 450 and 500 MPa. Deformation induced softening occurs at all conditions. SEM and TEM examinations of the deformed specimens reveal that non-uniform deformation takes place at all strain rates, but cracking occurs mostly at high strain rates (e.g. 1×10−1s−1), especially combined with low temperatures. The cracking appears to progress primarily along γ/α2interfaces. It is thought that non-uniform deformation develops channels of shear bands, which in turn promote localized recrystallization, thus accommodating higher strains.

Hot deformation behavior of the 30%Mo/Cu-Al2O3 composite was investigated by hot compression tests on Gleeble-1500D thermal simulator in the temperature ranges of 450~750°C and the strain rate ranges of 0.01~5s-1, as the total strain is 0.7. The results show that the peak stress increases with the decreased deformation temperature or the increased strain rate. Based on the true stress-strain curves, the established constitutive equation represents the high-temperature flow behavior of the composite, and the calculated flow stresses are in good agreement with the high- temperature deformation experimental results.

The high temperature deformation and fracture behavior of ultra-high strength G33 steel under high strain rate compression are investigated by means of a split Hopkinson p ressure bar. Impact tests are performed at strain rates of 1000/s and 2200/s and at temperatures ranging from 25°C to 700°C. The SEM and TEM techniques are also used to analyze the microstructure evolution of the adiabatic shear band (ASB) and fracture characteristics of the deformed specimens at high temperature. The experimental results indicate that the flow stress of G33 steel is significantly dependent on temperatures and strain rates. The flow stress of G33 steel increases with the increase of strain rates, but decreases with the increase of temperatures. The strain rate sensitivity is more pronounced at the low temperature of 25°C. In addition, G33 steel is more liable to fracture at high temperatures than at 25°C. Observations of microstructure show two well-developed symmetric parabolic adiabatic shear bands on the longitudinal cross-section of the cylindrical specimen deformed at the temperature of 700°C and at the strain rate of 2200/s. Within the ASB, the width of the fine equiaxed grain structure is about 7μm. The size of those equiaxed grains is approximately 100nm. The fracture analysis results indicate that the ASBs are the predominant deformation and the specimens fracture along adiabatic shear bands. The fracture surfaces of the deformed G33 steel specimens are characterized by two alternating zones: rough dimple zone and relatively smooth shear zone. Further observations reveal that smooth shear zones consist of severely sheared dimples.

Uniaxial compression tests were conducted on Al-3mass%Mg alloy under various temperatures and strain rates. High temperature yielding was observed at the temperatures higher than 623K. Texture examination elucidated that fiber textures are constructed in all the deformation conditions examined in this study. It was found that the kinds and intensities of texture components varied depending on deformation temperature, strain rate and the amount of strain.

Mg-6Li-3Zn alloy sheets were prepared by melting and casting, and heavy rolling with a total reduction of 94%. The high-temperature mechanical behavior, microstructures and deformation mechanisms were investigated. The maximum elongation to failure of 300% was demonstrated at 623K and an initial strain rate of 1.67×10-3s-1. Observations by optical microscope, transmission electron microscope reveal that significant dynamic recrystallization and grain refinement occurred in banded grains at 573K and an initial strain rate of 1.67×10-3s-1, under which the subgrain contour was ambiguous and dislocation distribution was relatively uniform. It is shown by newly constructed deformation mechanism map that the high-temperature deformation mechanism in Mg-6Li-3Zn alloy sheet with banded grains at 573K and an initial strain rate of 1.67×10-3 s-1 is dislocation viscous glide controlled by lattice diffusion, the stress exponent is 3 (strain rate sensitivity exponent 0.33) and deformation activation energy is 134.8 kJ mol-1, which is the same as the lattice diffusion activation energy of magnesium.

The progress of high temperature deformation in samples of two commercial titanium alloys with superplastic (SP) structure, non-SP structure, and with an SP layer sandwiched between the non-SP regions has been studied on the scale of the entire deformed volume and on the scale of grain groups. The results of mechanical behavior showed that samples with SP layer exhibit higher stress level than those with completely SP structure and higher strain rate sensitivity than those with completely non-SP structure. Samples with SP layer demonstrate a more pronounced deccrease in strain rate sensitivity with the increase of strain than samples with completely SP structure. Deformation in the SP layer proceeds as grain shear in a layer-by-layer manner. The deformation of SP layer through the operation of cooperative grain boundary sliding, i.e., sliding of grain groups as an entity along certain grain boundary surfaces, provides the main contribution to the total strain.
