A new type of near α high temperature titanium alloy of Ti-Al-Sn-Zr-Mo-Si-Er was studied. The samples with different primary α phase content were prepared by solid solution at 950 °C/1 h—1010 °C/1 h. The multi-step hot compression experiments were carried out by Gleeble-3500 in a sequence of upper region of α + β phase, then followed by lower region of α + β phase. The effects of primary α phase content and deformation temperature on the microstructure of the alloy were studied by means of true stress-strain curve and optical microscope. The results show that the content of primary α phase gradually decreases from 45.4% at 950°C to 0% at 1010°C. As the deformation temperature decreases from 940°C to 900°C, the content of α phase increases gradually from 65% to 94%, which is changed from dynamic recrystallization to deformed structure elongated along RD direction. It is found that the arrangement of α phase along RD direction is the longest at 920°C. With the increase of the deformation temperature in the multi-step high temperature region from 970°C to 990°C, the width of deformed α phase decreases from 3.64 μm at 970°C to 2.71 μm at 990°C. The optimized microstructure is composed of 20% primary α phase arranged along RD direction. This process has a certain potential in the process of hot deformation of the alloy. Key words: high temperature titanium alloy, primary α phase, multi-step hot deformation

In the present work, the hot deformation behavior of TB18 titanium alloy was investigated by isothermal hot compression tests with temperatures from 650 to 880°C and strain rates from 0.001 to 10 s−1. The flow curves after friction and temperature correction show that the peak stress decreased with the temperature increase and the strain rate decrease. Three typical characteristics of flow behavior indicate the dynamic softening behavior during hot deformation. At a strain rate of 0.001∼0.01 s−1, the flow stress continues to decrease as the strain rate increases after the flow stress reaches the peak stress; the flow softening mechanism is dynamic recovery and dynamic recrystallization at a lower temperature and dynamic recrystallization at a higher temperature. The discontinuous yielding phenomenon could be seen at a strain rate of 1 s−1, dynamic recrystallization took place in the β single-phase zone, and flow localization bands were observed in the α + β two-phase zone. At a higher strain rate of 10 s−1, the flow instabilities were referred to as the occurrence of flow localization by adiabatic heat. Constitutive equation considering the compensation of strain was also established, and the results show high accuracy to predict the flow stress with the correlation coefficient of 99.2% and the AARE of 6.1%, respectively.

Isothermal compression tests of TC18 titanium alloy at the deformation temperatures ranging from 25?C to 800?C and strain rate ranging from 10-4 to 10-2 s-1 were conducted by using a WDW-300 electronic universal testing machine. The hot deformation behavior of TC18 was characterized based on an analysis of the true stress-true strain curves of TC18 titanium alloy. The curves show that the flow stress increases with increasing the strain rate and decreases with increasing the temperature, and the strain rate play an important role in the flow stress when increasing the temperatures. By taking the effect of strain into account, an improved constitutive relationship was proposed based on the Arrhenius equation. By comparison with the experimental results, the model prediction agreed well with the experimental data, which demonstrated the established constitutive relationship was reliable and can be used to predict the hot deformation behavior of TC18 titanium alloy.

The hot deformation behavior of Ti-4.5Al-3V-2Mo-2Fe (SP-700) titanium alloy in the temperature range of 650°C~950°C and constant strain rate of 0.01, 0.1, 1 and 10s-1 has been investigated by hot compressive testing on the Gleeble-1500D thermal simulation test machine. The experimental results indicated that the hot deformation behavior of SP-700 alloy was sensitive to the deformation temperature and strain rate. The peak flow stress decreased with the increase of temperature and the decrease of strain rate. The flow curves characteristic under different deformation parameters show significant different. Analysis of the flow stress dependence on strain rate and temperature gives a stress exponent of n as 4.8235 and a deformation activation energy of Q as 410kJ/mol. Based on the dynamic materials model, the processing map is generated, which shows that the most peak efficiency domain appears at the temperature of 725°C~775°C and the strain rate of 0.001 s-1~0.003s-1 with a peak efficiency of 45% at about 750°C/0.01s-1.

The hot deformation behaviors of a ferritic spheroidal cast iron (FSCI) have been investigated by compression testing on a Gleeble 3500 machine of the DSI-YSU Joint Laboratory. The temperature rang was from 1073K to 1273K and strain rate from 10-3 to 1 s-1. The total true stain was 0.7. The result shows that the flow curves obtained are typical of dynamic recrystallization processes. The plots of either the natural logarithms of the corresponding temperature or the natural logarithms of strain rate against the hyperbolic of flow stresses satisfy straight line relationships over the experimental data, indicating that the hot compression of the FSCI is thermally activated. The material constants, including activation energy 0H as 240.8 kJ/mol, stress-level coefficient α as 1.352×10-8 Pa-1, stress exponential n as 3.9937, structural factor A as 5.64×108 s-1, are derived .

The effect of strain rate and deformation temperature on flow stress of TC18 titanium alloy was studied through heat simulating tests in 760~960 with temperature interval and the strain rate interval in 0.01~10s-1. Relationship model of flow stress versus strain was established and hot deformation mechanics of TC18 titanium alloy was analyzed. The results show that the flow stress reduces obviously as the deformation temperature increases or the strain rate decreases. Dynamic recovery occurs at high strain rate above phase transformation point, while dynamic recrystallization occurs at low strain rate as well as at the temperature below phase transformation point.

The results of physical simulation of hot compression of semi-finished products, selected from a cast ingot and hot-rolled plate from aluminum-lithium alloy V-1461, in the temperature range of 400-460°C and strain rates of 1-60 s-1are presented. It is established that at a constant strain rate the flow stresses decrease with increasing test temperature, an increase in the strain rate leads to an increase in flow stresses at a constant temperature. The parameters of the hot deformation rheological model, including the Zener-Hollomon parameter and the hyperbolic sine law, are determined. It is established that the parameters of the rheological model for the cast and hot-rolled state differ insignificantly.

Abstract In this study, hot deformation behavior of SP-700 titanium alloy was investigated by hot compression tests in the temperature range of 700-9508C and at strain rates of 0.001, 0.1, and 1 s-1. Final mechanical properties of the alloy (hot compressed at different strain rates and temperatures) were investigated using a shear punch testing method at room temperature. The flow curves of the alloy indicated that the yield point phenomenon occurs in the temperature range of 800- 9508C and strain rates of 0.1 and 1 s-1. The microstructural analysis showed that dynamic globularization of the lamellar α phase starts at 7008C and completes at 8008C. The alpha phase was completely eliminated from b matrix due to deformation- induced transformation at 8508C. The microstructure of specimens compressed at 8508C and strain rates of 0.001 and 0.1 s-1showed the serration of beta grain boundaries, whereas partial dynamic recrystallization caused a necklace structure by increasing strain rate up to 1 s-1. The specimen deformed at 7008C and strain rate of 1 s-1was located in the instability region and localized shear bands formed due to the low thermal conductivity of the alloy. The processing map of the alloy exhibited a peak efficiency domain of 54% in the temperature range of 780-8108C and strain rates of 0.001- 0.008 s-1. The hot deformation activation energy of the alloy in the α/β region (305.5 kJ mol-1) was higher than that in the single-phase β region (165.2 kJ mol-1) due to the dynamic globularization of the lamellar a phase.

The specimen strain rate in the split Hopkinson bar (SHB) test has been formulated based on a one-dimensional assumption. The strain rate is found to be controlled by the stress and strain of the deforming specimen, geometry (the length and diameter) of specimen, impedance of bar, and impact velocity. The specimen strain rate evolves as a result of the competition between the rate-increasing and rate-decreasing factors. Unless the two factors are balanced, the specimen strain rate generally varies (decreases or increases) with strain (specimen deformation), which is the physical origin of the varying nature of the specimen strain rate in the SHB test. According to the formulated strain rate equation, the curves of stress–strain and strain rate–strain are mutually correlated. Based on the correlation of these curves, the strain rate equation is verified through a numerical simulation and experiment. The formulated equation can be used as a tool for verifying the measured strain rate–strain curve simultaneously with the measured stress–strain curve. A practical method for predicting the specimen strain rate before carrying out the SHB test has also been presented. The method simultaneously solves the formulated strain rate equation and a reasonably estimated constitutive equation of specimen to generate the anticipated curves of strain rate–strain and stress–strain in the SHB test. An Excel® program to solve the two equations is provided. The strain rate equation also indicates that the increase in specimen stress during deformation (e.g., work hardening) plays a role in decreasing the slope of the strain rate–strain curve in the plastic regime. However, according to the strain rate equation, the slope of the strain rate–strain curve in the plastic deformation regime can be tailored by controlling the specimen diameter. Two practical methods for determining the specimen diameter to achieve a nearly constant strain rate are presented.

To better describe its constitutive relation, we need a new constitutive equation for an important nonlinear elastic material, Mn-Cu damping alloy. In this work, we studied the nonlinear and hysteretic characteristics of the stress-strain curve of the M2052 alloy with the uniaxial cyclic tensile test with constant strain rate. The strain rate and amplitude correlations of M2052 resembled those of nonlinear viscoelastic material. Therefore, we created a new constitutive equation for the M2052 damping alloy by modifying the fractional Maxwell model, and we used the genetic algorithm to carry out numerical fitting with MATLAB. By comparing with the experimental data, we confirmed that the new constitutive equation could accurately depict the nonlinear constitutive relation and hysteretic property of the damping alloy. Taken together, this new constitutive equation for Mn-Cu damping alloy based on the fractional Maxwell model can serve as an effective tool for further studies of the constitutive relation of the Mn-Cu damping alloys.
