High-temperature compression tests with dual-phase Mg-6Li alloy were conducted on the Gleeble-3500 thermal-mechanical simulator. Flow stress and micro-structure evolution were analyzed for temperatures (T = 423, 473,523 and 573 K) and strain rates (ε˙= 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1 s−1). On this basis, the constitutive model and hot processing maps were established. Besides, the dynamic re-crystallization (DRX) of α-Mg phase, grain orientation and texture composition under different deformation conditions were analyzed by EBSD technology. The experimental results show that the flow stress of Mg-6Li alloy increased with decreasing deformation temperature and increasing strain rate. In addition, the range of instability zone expanded with the increase of strain. The optimal thermal processing temperature was found to be in the range of 500 K–573 K, and the optimal strain rates were between 0.01 s−1–1 s−1. Model-predicted stress values were compared with experimental values for model verification. The 0.9954 correlation coefficient and the 5.48% average absolute relative error shown by the calculation indicate an acceptable accuracy of the model in predicting thermal deformation behavior of Mg-6Li alloy. Moreover, based on our EBSD data and maps analysis, the DRX proportion of α-Mg phase in Mg-6Li alloy was relatively low, and α-Mg phase formed <0001>//CD basal texture.

To study the hot deformation behavior of Al-Mg-Er alloy, hot compression tests were conducted on a Gleeble-1500D thermal simulator at the temperature range of 200-500°C with the strain rates from 0.001 to 10s-1. With the increase in the deformation temperature and the decrease in strain rates, the flow stress of the Al-Mg-Er alloy decreased. Processing maps were constructed to study on hot workability characteristics. The results showed that the flow stress curves exhibited the typical dynamic recrystallization characteristics and the stress decreased with the increase of deformation temperature and the decrease of strain rate. Moreover, the processing maps were established on the basis of dynamic material model and Prasad’s instability criterion.

The isothermal compression tests of the nickel-based superalloy Waspaloy were carried out under various temperatures from 1040 to 1120 °C and strain rates from 0.01 to 10 s−1 with the height reduction of 60% and the flow stress curves were obtained. The curves show that the flow stress is greatly affected by the temperature and strain rates. Regression analysis of the experimental results was carried out to learn about the deformation behavior through the Arrhenius equation and came to the conclusion that the activation energy of Waspaloy is 669.7 kJ/mol. The constitutive equation of the Waspaloy was constructed. Meanwhile, the processing maps of the Waspaloy for the power dissipation and the flow instability were constructed. The processing map of the power dissipation and the flow instability depicts that the strain plays a major role in the processing maps. The instability zone is prone to appear at higher strain rates with the increasing strains. According to the instability processing map, there are three unsafe regimes around 1040–1120 °C/1.5–10 s−1, 1040–1080 °C/0.02–0.1 s−1 and 1110–1120 °C/0.02–0.3 s−1 that should be avoided during deformation process. The power dissipation maps show that the maximum dissipation is prone to appear at low strain rates (0.01 s−1) when the strain is about 0.1~0.6 while at middle strain rates (0.1–1 s−1) when the strain is over 0.6, and when the true strain is 0.9, the optimum processing condition is around 1060–1120 °C/0.1–1 s−1. The dynamic microstructures under different temperatures and strain rates were also obtained. We concluded that lower strain rates and higher temperatures are more applicable to obtain fully-recrystallized microstructures. Based on the instability maps and the power dissipation maps and the dynamic microstructures, the optimum deformation conditions are determined to be around 1080–1100 °C/0.1–1 s−1 and 1040–1120 °C/0.01 s−1.

AbstractHigh-temperature single-pass compression experiments were conducted on alloy 800H using a Gleeble 3500 thermal-mechanical simulation testing machine, and hot deformation behaviors at temperatures of 1,000–1,150 °C and strain rates of 0.01–1 s–1 were investigated. The results revealed that dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior occurred more easily under deformation conditions with relatively low strain rates and high deformation temperatures. By taking the influence of strain on the hot deformation behavior into consideration, a strain-dependent hyperbolic sine constitutive model was constructed. Based on this revised constitutive model, flow stress during deformation was predicted. The linear relation between the predicted value and the experimental result was as high as 0.99648, and the absolute average relative error was 2.019 %. Thus, it was demonstrated that the strain-dependent analysis provided a constitutive model that was able to precisely predict flow stress under experimental conditions.

The hot deformation behavior of CL60 rail wheel steel has been studied by employing both processing maps and microstructural observations. Tests are performed at temperatures of 800—1100°C and strain rates of 0.1s-1—5s-1 and the flow stress data obtained from the tests are used to develop processing maps. The microstructural evolution of deformed samples is also examined on the basis of optical microscopic observations. The result indicates that under experimental conditions this alloy shows dynamic recrystallization(RDX) characteristics during hot compression deformation. Both deformation temperatures and strain rates have obvious influence on flow stress and its corresponding peak strain, which increase gradually with decreasing temperature and increasing strain rate. RDX occurred at higher temperature and lower strain rate.

The flow behavior of metastable β titanium alloy was investigated basing on isothermal hot compression tests performed on Gleeble 3800 thermomechanical simulator at near and above β transus temperatures. The flow stress curves were obtained for deformation temperature range of 800–1100 °C and strain rate range of 0.01–100 s−1. The strain compensated constitutive model was developed using the Arrhenius-type equation. The high correlation coefficient (R) as well as low average absolute relative error (AARE) between the experimental and the calculated data confirmed a high accuracy of the developed model. The dynamic material modeling in combination with the Prasad stability criterion made it possible to generate processing maps for the investigated processing temperature, strain and strain rate ranges. The high material flow stability under investigated deformation conditions was revealed. The microstructural analysis provided additional information regarding the flow behavior and predominant deformation mechanism. It was found that dynamic recovery (DRV) was the main mechanism operating during the deformation of the investigated β titanium alloy.

The hot deformation behavior of a new Al–Mn–Sc alloy was investigated by hot compression conducted at temperatures from 330 to 490 °C and strain rates from 0.01 to 10 s−1. The hot deformation behavior and microstructure of the alloy were significantly affected by the deformation temperatures and strain rates. The peak flow stress decreased with increasing deformation temperatures and decreasing strain rates. According to the hot deformation behavior, the constitutive equation was established to describe the steady flow stress, and a hot processing map at 0.4 strain was obtained based on the dynamic material model and the Prasad instability standard, which can be used to evaluate the hot workability of the alloy. The developed hot processing diagram showed that the instability was more likely to occur in the higher Zener–Hollomon parameter region, and the optimal processing range was determined as 420–475 °C and 0.01–0.022 s−1, in which a stable flow and a higher power dissipation were achieved.

Results show that, H96 brass alloy has strong strain hardening behavior, and it becomes weaker with the increasing temperature. In addition, this alloy is sensitive to strain rates; and, it has temperature sensitivity, the dynamic strain aging occurs at the temperature of 473 K and a quasi-static strain rate of 0.001 s-1. Based on the thermal activation dislocation mechanism, paralleled with the experimental results, a plastic flow constitutive model with the physical conception is developed. The model is suitable to predict the plastic flow stress at different temperatures and strain rates. According to comparing results, the model predictions are in good agreement with the experimental results.
