Fe-Cr-Ni preform reinforcing aluminum composite was produced by squeeze casting. And then, T6 heat treatment was conducted to enhance the composite’s performance. After which, isothermal compression tests in temperature range of 298 - 473 K at an 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.

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.

Flow behavior of Al-2.0wt.%Cu-1.0wt.%Mn aluminum alloy was investigated by hot compressive test using a Gleebe-3800 thermal simulator. The test parameters about temperature and strain rate range from 573K to 773 K and from 0.01s-1 to 5s-1, respectively, and the true strain is up to 0.6. It can be seen that the peak flow stress increases with increasing the strain rate and decreases by deformation temperature. And the deformation activation energy of Al-2.0wt.%Cu-1.0wt.%Mn alloy is 183.02KJ/mol. A constitutive equation has been constructed to predict the hot deformation behavior, and correlate the peak flow stress predicted with strain rate and deformation temperature.

Medium carbon micro-alloyed forging steels are employed in various automotive components. The impetus for the use of micro alloyed (MA) steels is cost reduction due to elimination of post-forging heat treatment. Compared to conventional quenched and tempered steels micro-alloyed steels can achieve similar or more superior properties simply by properly controlling the process parameters. Forging temperature, strain, strain rate and cooling rate are some of the important process parameters that influence the flow stress and final forging product quality. In the present study, hot compression test on a micro-alloyed steel grade 38MnSiVS5 were conducted on thermo-mechanical simulator (Gleeble-3500) to study the effect of temperature and strain rate on flow stress. The results indicate that the flow stress of 38MnSiVS5 steel is greatly affected by both deformation temperature and strain rate. Obtained true stress-true strain curves showed that the flow stress of the alloy increased by increasing the strain rate and decreasing the temperature, which can be represented in terms of an exponent type Zener-Hollomon equation. Finally, the constitutive equations for the flow behavior of 38MnSiVS5 microalloyed steel were determined.

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 flow behavior of a new kind of high-strength nickel brass used as automobile synchronizer rings was investigated by hot compression tests with a Gleeble-3500 isothermal simulator at strain rates ranging from 0.01 to 10 s−1 and a wide deformation temperature range of 873–1073K at intervals of 50 K. The experimental results show that flow stress increases with increasing strain rate and decreasing deformation temperature, and discontinuous yielding appeared in the flow stress curves at higher strain rates. A modified Arrhenius constitutive model considering the compensation of strain was established to describe the flow behavior of this alloy. A processing map was also constructed with strain of 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 based on the obtained experimental flow stress–strain data. In addition, the optical microstructure evolution and its connection with the processing map of compressed specimens are discussed. The predominant deformation mechanism of Cu-Ni-Al brass is dynamic recovery when the deformation temperature is lower than 973 K and dynamic recrystallization when the deformation temperature is higher than 973 K according to optical observation. The processing map provides the optimal hot working temperature and strain rate, which is beneficial in choosing technical parameters for this high-strength alloy.

The deformation behavior of a Udimet720Li superalloy under hot compression tests was characterized in the temperature range of 1060~1160°C and strain rate range of 0.001~20s-1. Processing maps were conducted at a series of strains to calculate the efficiency of hot working and to recognize the instability regions of the flow behavior. A Zener-Hollomon parameter is given to characterize the dependence of peak stress on temperature and strain rate. The efficiency of power dissipation of the Udimet720Li superalloy obtained in a strain range of 0.1~0.7 are essentially similar, which indicates that strain does not have a significant influence and the instability region shown in high strain and high strain rates at all temperatures. The regions for the full recrystallization can be divided by the dissolution beginning temperature of primary γ'which are the optimum hot working parameters.

The hot deformation behaviors of 30%SiCp/2024 aluminum alloy composites was studied by hot compression tests using Gleeble-1500 thermomechanical simulator at temperatures ranging from 350-500°C under strain rates of 0.01-10 s-1. The true stress-true strain curves were obtained in the tests. Constitutive equation and processing map were established. The results show that the flow stress decreases with the increase of deformation temperature at a constant strain rate, and increases with the increase of strain rate at constant temperature, indicating that composite is a positive strain rate sensitive material. The flow stress behavior of composite during hot compression deformation can be represented by a Zener-Hollomon parameter in the hyperbolic sine form. Its activation energy for hot deformation Q is 183.251 kJ/mol. The optimum hot working conditions for this material are suggested.

Abstract Aluminum piston alloys of the AA4032 type are produced by direct-chill (DC) casting and subsequent forging; therefore, it is important to understand their thermomechanical behavior. In recent years, it was shown that additions of Cu and Er could improve mechanical properties of these alloys at room and high temperatures. In this work, we studied the constitutive behavior of AA4032-type alloys with and without Cu and Er additions. The experimental true stress–true strain curves were obtained by compression tests under various temperatures [683 K to 723 K (410 °C to 450 °C)] and strain rates (0.01 to 10 s−1) to determine constitutive parameters [strain-rate sensitivity, activation energy, and Zener–Hollomon (Z) parameter] for the hot deformation behavior of AA4032-type piston alloys with and without additions of Cu and Er. The flow stress decreased with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate. The results also showed that increasing the Cu content increased the flow stress over the applied range of deformation conditions due to solid-solution strengthening and the formation of primary Si particles, which led to an increase in the activation energy during hot deformation. Moreover, the main microstructural damage in the AA4032 alloy with 3.5 pct Cu was predominantly due to the cracking of primary Si particles. Additions of 0.4 pct Er and 3.5 pct Cu lower the activation energy of deformation, Q, as compared to the base alloy and the alloy with 3.5 pct Cu. The microstructures in the deformed specimens consisted of subgrains, recrystallized grains, and fine eutectic phases. The alloys containing Er demonstrated more polygonized grains at a low strain rate than the alloys without Er, indicating that Er hindered recrystallization development. The peak stress of the AA4032 alloy with 3.5 pct Cu alloy was higher than for the base AA4032 alloy and for the AA4032 alloy with 3.5 pct Cu and 0.4 pct Er additions, which was attributed to the prevalence of the work-hardening mechanism over the softening mechanism.

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.
