AbstractIn this study, the high-temperature deformation behaviour of a TC17 titanium alloy was investigated by isothermal hot compression tests in a wide range of temperatures (973–1223 K) and strain rates (0.001–10 s−1). Then, the constitutive equations of different phase regimes (α + β and single β phases) were developed on the basis of experimental stress-strain data. The influence of the strain has been incorporated in the constitutive equation by considering its effect on different material constants for the TC17 titanium alloy. Furthermore, the predictability of the developed constitutive equation was verified by the correlation coefficient and average absolute relative error. The results indicated that the obtained constitutive equations could predict the high-temperature flow stress of a TC17 titanium alloy with good correlation and generalization.

The high temperature deformation behaviour of near alpha titanium alloy IMI834 with a bimodal microstructure has been evaluated by carrying out isothermal compression tests over a range of temperature and strain rate. The optimum thermomechanical processing (TMP) parameters i.e., temperature, strain rate that can be used to produce various aeroengine components were identified using dynamic materials modeling (DMM). Using kinetic analysis, a unified constitutive equation that describes the deformation behavior of the material in the selected temperature - strain rate regime has been established and the deformation mechanisms operating in the material were identified.

AbstractHigh temperature deformation behavior of BFe10-1-2 cupronickel alloy was investigated by means of isothermal compression tests in the temperature range of 1,023~1,273 K and strain rate range of 0.001~10 s–1. Based on orthogonal experiment and variance analysis, the significance of the effects of strain, strain rate and deformation temperature on the flow stress was evaluated. Thereafter, a constitutive equation was developed on the basis of the orthogonal analysis conclusions. Subsequently, standard statistical parameters were introduced to verify the validity of developed constitutive equation. The results indicated that the predicted flow stress values from the constitutive equation could track the experimental data of BFe10-1-2 cupronickel alloy under most deformation conditions.

To investigate the hot deformation behaviors of AISI 4120 steel, isothermal compression tests were conducted using Gleeble-1500 thermal-mechanical simulator in the temperature range of 1073-1373K with the strain rate of 0.01-10s-1. The hyperbolic sine law in Arrhenius type is used in the constitutive modeling for AISI 4120. The influence of strain is incorporated in constitutive analysis by considering the effect of strain on material constants α, n, Q and ln A. The flow stress values predicted by the developed constitutive equations show a good agreement with experimental results, which reveals that the developed constitutive equations could give an accurate and precise prediction for the high temperature flow behaviors of AISI 4120 steel. The predictability of developed constitutive equation was further quantified in terms of correlation coefficient (R) and average absolute relative error (AARE). The R and AARE were found to be 0.9847 and 8.0372% respectively, which reflects the good prediction capabilities of the developed constitutive equation.

Isothermal compression tests were conducted at Thermecmaster-Z simulator, and grain size of the prior a phase was measured at a Leica LABOR-LUX12MFS/ST microscope for quantitative metallography. A methodology to establish a constitutive equation with grain size was proposed with the help of the experimental results. Combining FEM and the present constitutive equation at high temperature deformation, grain size of the prior a phase was simulated during the isothermal forging of a TC6 titanium alloy disc. The present results illustrate grain size and distribution of the prior a phase in the forging process of TC6 titanium alloy disc in detail. The maximum difference between the calculated results and the experimental is not more than 15%.

Isothermal hot compression tests of TC4–DT titanium alloy were performed under temperatures of 1203–1293 K and strain rates of 0.001–10 s−1. The purpose of this study is to develop a new high-precision modified constitutive model that can describe the deformation behavior of TC4–DT titanium alloy. Both the modified strain-compensated Arrhenius-type equation and the modified Hensel–Spittel equation were established by revising the strain rate. The parameters in the above two modified constitutive equation were solved by combining regression analysis with iterative methods, which was used instead on the traditional linear regression methods. In addition, both the original strain-compensated Arrhenius-type equation and Hensel–Spittel equation were established to compare with the new modified constitutive equations. A comparison of the predicted values based on the four constitutive equations was performed via relative error, average absolute relative error (AARE) and the correlation coefficient (R). These results show the modified Arrhenius-type equation and the modified Hensel–Spittel equation is more accurate and efficient with a similar prediction accuracy. The AARE-value of the two modified constitutive equation is relatively low under various strain rates and their fluctuation is small as the strain rate changes.

The effects of processing parameters on deformation behavior of a new near β titanium alloy were investigated by using compression tests. The experiments were carried out in the Gleeble-3800 thermal and mechanical simulator in the temperature range of 770-970°C and strain rate range of 10-3-10s-1, and height direction reduction of 70%. The results show that the flow stress of Ti-7333 titanium alloy increases obviously with the strain and reaches a peak, then decreases to a steady value. The steady and peak stress significantly decreases with the increase of deformation temperature and decrease of strain rate. The flow stress model of Ti-7333 titanium alloy during high temperature deformation was established by using the regression method. The average relative difference between the calculated and experimental flow stress is 6.33%. The flow stress model can efficiently predict the deformation behavior of Ti-7333 titanium alloy during high temperature deformation.

AbstractThe deformation behavior of an isothermally compressed Ti555211 titanium alloy was examined by an Arrhenius-type constitutive model using experimental data obtained from hot compression tests; these tests were performed at temperatures and strain rates of 750–950°C and 0.001–1 s−1, respectively. Activation energies of hot deformation were calculated in 0.05 intervals for strains ranging from 0.1 to 0.7. The respective values of were obtained for the (α+β) and β region. In addition, the predictive capability of the model was described by the average absolute relative error (AARE) and the correlation coefficient (R). The simulated values were compared with the experimental values, and R and AARE of 0.99084 and 6.914%, respectively, were obtained for the Arrhenius-type constitutive model. These values were indicative of the good predictive capabilities of the developed strain-compensated constitutive equation. Moreover, in this work isothermal compression tests, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to systematically investigate the high-temperature deformation behavior of Ti555211 alloy under different processing conditions. EBSD and TEM were used to reveal the substructure and grain orientation of samples of the hot-deformed Ti555211 alloy. The phenomenon of discontinuous yielding was also discussed.
