AbstractTrue stress and true strain values obtained from isothermal compression tests over a wide temperature range from 1,073 to 1,323 K and a strain rate range from 0.001 to 1 s–1 were employed to establish the constitutive equations based on Johnson Cook, modified Zerilli–Armstrong (ZA) and strain-compensated Arrhenius-type models, respectively, to predict the high-temperature flow behavior of Ti–6Al–4V alloy in α + β phase. Furthermore, a comparative study has been made on the capability of the three models to represent the elevated temperature flow behavior of Ti–6Al–4V alloy. Suitability of the three models was evaluated by comparing both the correlation coefficient R and the average absolute relative error (AARE). The results showed that the Johnson Cook model is inadequate to provide good description of flow behavior of Ti–6Al–4V alloy in α + β phase domain, while the predicted values of modified ZA model and the strain-compensated Arrhenius-type model could agree well with the experimental values except under some deformation conditions. Meanwhile, the modified ZA model could track the deformation behavior more accurately than other model throughout the entire temperature and strain rate range.

AbstractConstitutive analysis for hot working of BFe10-1-2 alloy was carried out by using experimental stress–strain data from isothermal hot compression tests, in a wide range of temperature of 1,023~1,273 K, and strain rate range of 0.001~10 s–1. A constitutive equation based on modified double multiple nonlinear regression was proposed considering the independent effects of strain, strain rate, temperature and their interrelation. The predicted flow stress data calculated from the developed equation was compared with the experimental data. Correlation coefficient (R), average absolute relative error (AARE) and relative errors were introduced to verify the validity of the developed constitutive equation. Subsequently, a comparative study was made on the capability of strain-compensated Arrhenius-type constitutive model. The results showed that the developed constitutive equation based on modified double multiple nonlinear regression could predict flow stress of BFe10-1-2 alloy with good correlation and generalization.

The hot deformation behavior of Zr-4 alloy was studied in the temperature range 650-900°C and strain rate range 0.005-50s-1 using processing maps. The processing maps revealed three domains: the first occurs in the temperature range 780-820°C and strain rate range 0.005-0.05s-1, and has a peak efficiency of 45% at 790°C and 0.005s-1; the mechanism is the dynamic recrystallization. The second occurs in the temperature range greater than 900°C and strain rate range 0.05-0.8s-1, and has a peak efficiency of 40% at 900°C and 0.5s-1, which are the domains of dynamic recovery. In addition, the instability zones of flow behavior can also be recognized by the maps in the temperature range 650-780°C and strain rate range 0.01-0.1s-1, which should be strictly avoided in the processing of the material. Zr-4 alloy is the material for pressure tube applications in nuclear reactors and has better strength and a lower rate of hydrogen uptake compared to other materials under similar service conditions.

In this paper, squeeze casting process was adopted to produce the Fe-Cr-Ni preform reinforced Al-Si-Cu-Ni-Mg aluminum composite. And then, T6 heat treatment was conducted to enhance the composite’s performance. After which, isothermal compression tests in temperature range of 473-773 K at an interval of 150 K and strain rate range from 0.001 to 10 s-1 were carried out on Gleeble 3500 thermo-mechanical simulation machine. It is found that, for a specific strain rate, the flow stress decreases markedly with temperature increases. And for a fixed temperature, the flow stress generally increases as the strain rate increases. Based on the experimental true stress-true strain data, the Arrhenius type model was established.

The Arrhenius-type constitutive equation is mostly used to describe flow behaviors of material. However, no processing map has been constructed directly according to it. In this study, a novel computational method was applied for establishing the processing map for Ti-6Al-4V alloy in the temperature and strain rate range of 800–1050 °C and 0.001–10 s−1, respectively. The processing map can be divided into four domains according to its graphic features. Among the four domains, the optimal domain is in the temperature and strain rate range of 850–925 °C and 0.001–0.1 s−1, where peak efficiency η is 0.54 and the main microstructural evolution is DRX (dynamic recrystallization). When the alloy is processed in the α + β phase field, the temperature and strain rate range of 800–850 °C and 3–10 s−1 should be avoided, where instability parameter ξ is negative and the microstructural feature is flow localization. When the alloy is processed in the β phase field, DRV (dynamic recovery) and slight DRX of β phase is the main microstructural characteristics in the range of 1000–1050 °C and 0.001–0.02 s−1. However, flow localization of β phase is the main microstructural feature in the range of 1000–1050 °C and 1–10 s−1, which should be avoided.

The tensile deformation microstructures of an extruded AZ31 Mg alloy were examined at temperatures ranging from room temperature to 250°C over a strain rate range from 10-4 s-1 to 10-2 s-1. It is found that the strain rate has an enhanced effect on the tensile flow behavior of AZ31 Mg alloy with increasing temperature, which is closely related to the changes of deformation microstructures. The tensile deformation of AZ31 Mg alloy is mainly accommodated by twinning and slipping at room temperature and 100°C, and the amount of deformation twins reduces with increasing temperature and decreasing strain rate. However, discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurs primarily at grain boundaries, and nearly no deformation twins form, as the temperature is as high as 250°C. With decreasing strain rate, more significant DRX takes place with an increasing DRX grain size. The tensile deformation of AZ31 Mg alloy at 250°C is thus primarily controlled by slipping and DRX.

High temperature deformation behavior of AZ31 and AZ91 magnesium alloys was examined by compression tests over a wide strain rate range from 10–3 to 103 s–1 with emphasis on the behavior at high strain rates. The dominant deformation mechanism in the low strain rate range below 10–1 s–1 was suggested to be climb-controlled dislocation creep. On the other hand, experimental results indicated that the deformation at a high strain rate of ~103 s–1 proceeds by conventional plastic flow of dislocation glide and twinning even at elevated temperatures. The solid-solution strengthening was operative for high temperature deformation at ~103 s–1.

Isothermal constant strain rate compression testing of a new as-cast high-temperature titanium alloy Ti-6.5Al-11.5(Sn,Zr)-2.5(Mo,W,Nb)-0.25Si-0.1Er was carried out at the deformation temperatures range from 900°C to 1100°C, strain rate range from 0.001 to 1 s-1 and 60% of engineering strain. The deformation behavior of this high-temperature titanium alloy was analyzed based on the stress-strain result, and the constitutive equation based on the hyperbolic sine model and the parameters of Zener–Hollomon was established, showing a close accordance with the experimental value. The hot processing maps based on the dynamic material model and the Prasad’s instability criterion were constructed at strains of 0.3 and 0.6. The maps exhibit two stable deformation domains in the temperature range of 940~960°C and strain rate range of 0.001~0.002s-1, and in the temperature range of 1030~1070°C and strain rate range of 0.02~0.06s-1 with the power dissipation efficiency of 58.5% and 54.5%, respectively.

AbstractConstitutive analysis for elevated temperature flow behavior of BFe10-1-2 alloy was carried out by using experimental stress–strain data from isothermal hot compression tests on a Gleeble-3800 thermo-mechanical simulator, in a wide of temperature range of 1,023–1,273 K, and strain rate range of 0.001–10 s−1. A constitutive equation based on double multiple nonlinear regression (DMNR) was proposed considering the independent effects of strain, strain rate, temperature and their interrelation. The predicted flow stress data obtained from the developed equation based on DMNR was compared with the experimental data. Correlation coefficient (R), average absolute relative error (AARE) and relative errors were introduced to verify the validity of the developed constitutive equation. The results showed that the developed constitutive equation based on DMNR could predict flow stress of BFe10-1-2 alloy with good correlation and generalization.

The present work deals with the high temperature flow behavior and the microstructure of the Al-Cu/Mg2Si metal matrix composite. Toward this end, a set of hot compression tests was performed in a wide range of temperature (573–773 K) and strain rate (0.001–0.1 s−1). The results indicated that the temperature and strain rate have a significant effect on the flow softening and hardening behavior of the material. The work hardening rate may be offset due to the occurrence of the restoration processes, the dynamic coarsening, and spheroidization of the second phase particles. In this regard, two phenomenological constitutive models, Johnson–Cook (JC) and Arrhenius-type equations, were employed to describe the high temperature deformation behavior of the composite. The JC equation diverged from experimental curves mainly in conditions which are far from its reference temperature and reference strain rate. This was justified considering the fact that JC model considers thermal softening, strain rate hardening, and strain hardening as three independent phenomena. In contrast, the Arrhenius-type model was more accurate in modeling of the flow behavior in wide range of temperature and strain rate. The minor deviation at some specified conditions was attributed to the negative strain rate sensitivity of the alloys at low temperature deformation regime.
