The dynamic microstructure evolution of Mg-3Sn-2Al-1Zn-5Li magnesium alloy during hot deformation is studied by hot compression tests over the temperature range of 200–350 °C under the strain rate of 0.001–1 s−1, whereafter constitutive equations and processing maps are developed and constructed. In most of cases, the material shows typical dynamic recrystallization (DRX) features, with a signal peak value followed by a gradual decrease. The value of Q (deformation activation energy) is 138.89414 kJ/mol, and the instability domains occur at high strain rate but the stability domains are opposite, and the optimum hot working parameter for the studied alloy is determined to be 350 °C/0.001 s−1 according to the processing maps. Within 200–350 °C, the operating mechanism of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) of Mg-3Sn-2Al-1Zn-5Li alloy during hot deformation is mainly affected by strain rate. Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) structures are observed from the samples at 300 °C/0.001 s−1 and 350 °C/0.001 s−1, which consist of continuous DRX (CDRX) and discontinuous DRX (DDRX). However, dynamic recovery (DRV) still dominates the softening mechanism. At the grain boundaries, mass dislocation pile-ups and dislocation tangle provide sites for potential nucleation. Meanwhile, flow localization bands are observed from the samples at 200 °C/1 s−1 and 250 °C/0.1 s−1 as the main instability mechanism.

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.

Hot Deformation Behavior

316LN stainless steel with 0.08%N (08N) and 0.17%N (17N) was compressed at 1073–1473 K and 0.001–10 s−1. The hot deformation behavior was investigated using stress-strain curve analysis, processing maps, and so forth. The microstructure was analyzed through electron backscatter diffraction analysis. Under most conditions, the deformation resistance of 17N was higher than that of 08N. This difference became more pronounced at lower temperatures. The strain rate sensitivity increased with increasing temperature for types of steel. In addition, the higher the N content, the higher the strain rate sensitivity. Hot deformation activation energy increased from 487 kJ/mol to 549 kJ/mol as N concentration was increased from 0.08% to 0.17%. The critical strain for initiation of dynamic recrystallization was lowered with increasing N content. In the processing maps, both power dissipation ratio and unstable region increased with increasing N concentration. In terms of microstructure evolution, N promoted dynamic recrystallization kinetic and decreased dynamic recrystallization grain size. The grain growth rate was lower in 17N than in 08N during heat treatment. Finally, it was found that N favored twin boundary formation.

But the dynamically recrystallied grain size was not well-proportioned. In this paper the 350°C×1s-1 was suggested.

A precise description of the hot deformation behavior as well as determination of the stability conditions as influenced by temperature and strain rate is fundamental for the simulation of metal forming processes. In this work, a revision of various stability criteria of magnesium alloy WE54 is conducted. The study corresponds to own work and that of Lentz et al. and is based on compression tests at high temperature and high strain rates. Stability and processing maps were obtained using a variety of stability criteria, some based on the efficiency parameter η and others on the strain rate sensitivity parameter, m. This parameter is usually determined by fitting the curves strain rate, ε, versus stress, σ, by means of a potential equation named “power law” or by a polynomial of second or third degree, and calculating the slope of the logarithmic curve at each point using successive derivatives. This procedure is compared with one developed by us where all experimental points are fitted to a single hyperbolic sine equation of Garofalo type and then m and η are calculated for each ε and T using this equation. The maps obtained by one or the other method differ considerably. The predictions of these maps were contrasted with microstructural observations and conclusions on the deformation behavior of the alloy are reached.

The hot deformation behaviors of Aluminum alloy C919 were studied in the present investigation. The hot compression tests for C919 were carried out in the temperature range of 350°C~470°C and strain rates range of 0.001s-1~1s-1 using GLEEBLE-1500 thermal simulate testing machine. Optical microscopy (OM) was used for the microstructure characterization. The experimental results showed that the flow stress of C919 aluminum alloy decreased with increasing temperature and decreasing strain rates and the flow stress curves tended to increase at a strain rate of 1s-1 with increasing strain, while the flow stresses kept with increasing strain at lower strain rate. The alloys were more prone to dynamic recrystallization with decreasing strain rates during hot deformation. The hot compression behavior of C919 aluminum alloy can be described as hyperbolic sine function corrected Arrhenius relation. The processing maps for the alloy were built at a strain of 0.6. The instability deformation domain occurred at temperatures range from 350°C and 380°C and at a strain rate of 0.1-1s-1. Based on the processing maps and microstructure observations, the optimum hot-working parameters were determined to be at a temperature of 470°C in the strain rate range from 0.1-0.01s−1 for the C919 aluminum alloy.

The Stability

The hot compression tests of Ti-12Mo-4Zr-5Sn alloy were tested on the thermo-mechanical simulator of Gleeble-3500 under isothermal and constant strain rate. We studied this alloy’s behavior during thermal deformation at the conditions of T = 670~820 °C, ε ˙ = 0.001~10 s−1, and deformation degree 70%. The rheological stress curves of the alloy were modified, the characteristics of the rheological stress curves were analyzed, and the activation energy map of hot deformation was established. A physical constitutive model of the alloy based on strain compensation was established, which has taken the relationship between Young’s modulus and self-diffusion coefficient and temperature into account. Moreover, the intrinsic hot workability ξ map of the alloy was established based on the polar reciprocity model. The results show that this alloy’s rheological stress will descend when the temperature of deformation rises and grow when the strain rate increases, and has negative sensitivity of temperature and positive sensitivity of strain rate. According to the error calculation, the physical constitutive model’s correlation coefficient is 0.9910 and the average relative error is 3.97%, which has good accuracy. Through the analysis of the microstructures of the instability zone and the stability zone, it was found that the instability mode of the instability zone was dominated by the local flow, and the deformation mechanism of the stability zone was dominated by the dynamic recrystallization. The optimum processing parameters of the alloy known from ξ map and metallographic structure are the following: T = 790~820 °C and ε ˙ = 0.001~0.01 s−1.

Hot deformation characteristics of forged and β-quenched Zr-1.0Sn-0.3Nb-0.3Fe-0.1Cr (N18 alloy) in the temperature range 625–950°C and in the strain rate range 0.005–5 s−1 have been studied by uniaxial compression testing of Gleeble 3500. For this study, the approach of processing maps has been adopted and their interpretation done using the Dynamic Materials Model (DMM). Based on a series of true stress-true strain curves on various temperatures and strain rates, the flow stress has been summarized and both the strain rate sensitivity index (m) and deformation activation energy (Q) have been calculated by the constitutive equations that flow stress and the relationship of Z parameter and flow stress have been established subsequently. Furthermore, the efficiency of power dissipation (⬜) given by [2m/(m+1)] and improved by Murty has been plotted as a function of temperature and strain rate to obtain different processing maps at different true strain rates ranging from 0.1–0.7. Subsequently, the microstructures of the specimens after compression testing were characterized by electron channeling contrast (ECC) imaging techniques used an FEI Nova 400 field emission gun scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM). The results showed that: (i) The hyperbolic sine constitutive equation can describe the flow stress behavior of zirconium alloy, and the deformation activation energy and flow stress equation were calculated under the different temperature stages which insists that the deformation mechanism is not dynamic recovery. (ii) The hot processing maps and its validation were analyzed, which indicated that the DMM theory was reliable and could be adopted as useful tool for optimizing hot workability of Zr. The optimum parameters for extrusion and hammer forging were revealed on the processing maps of 830–950°C, 0.048–2.141 s−1 and 916–950°C, 2.465–5 s−1. (iii) The microstructure of the ingot exhibits a typical lamellar Widmanstatten structure. Under the different strain rates, the grains formed by dynamic recrystallization existed normally in the central zone of the compression samples while the no uniformity of grain size increased with the increasing of strain rate. Meanwhile, due to the dynamic recrystallization as a thermal activation process, the grains size and uniformity increased with the increasing of temperature. In brief, microstructure analysis showed that continuous dynamic recrystallization and geometric dynamic recrystallization operated concurrently during the isothermal compressive deformation.
