This work was focused on the compressive deformation behavior of 42CrMo steel at temperatures from 1123K to 1348K and strain rates from 0.01s-1 to 10s-1 on a Gleeble-1500 thermo-simulation machine. The true stress-strain curves tested exhibit peak stresses at small strains, after them the flow stresses decrease monotonically until high strains, showing a dynamic flow softening. And the stress level decreases with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate. The values of strain hardening exponent n, and the strain rate sensitivity exponent m were calculated the method of multiple linear regression, the results show that the two material parameters are not constants, but changes with temperature and strain rate. Then the two variable material parameters were introduced into Fields-Backofen equation amended. Thus the constitutive mechanical discription of 42CrMo steel which can accurately describe the relationships among flow stress, temperature, strain rate, strain offers the basic model for plastic forming process simulation.

42Crmo Steel

High-temperature reduction pretreatment (HTRP) is a process that can significantly improve the core quality of a billet. The existing flow stress data cannot meet the needs of simulation due to lack of high temperature data. To obtain the hot forming process parameters for the high-temperature reduction pretreatment process of 42CrMo steel, a hot compression experiment of 42CrMo steel was conducted on Gleeble-3500 thermal-mechanical at 1200–1350 °C with the rates of deformation 0.001–10 s−1 and the deformation of 60%, and its deformation behavior at elevated temperature was studied. In this study, the effects of flow stress temperature and strain rate on austenite grain were investigated. Moreover, two typical constitutive models were employed to describe the flow stress, namely the Arrhenius constitutive model of strain compensation and back propagation artificial neural network (BP ANN) model. The performance evaluation shows that BP ANN model has high accuracy and stability to predict the curve. The thermal processing maps under strains of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 were established. Based on the analysis of the thermal processing map, the optimal high reduction process parameter range of 42CrMo is obtained: the temperature range is 1250–1350 °C, and the strain rate range is 0.01–1 s−1.

The serrated plastic flow of L12 Ni3 (Si,Ti) alloys at intermediate temperature was investigated by tensile tests in terms of the effects of temperature, strain rate, composition, and microstructure. Serrated plastic flow was most strongly observed at 473 K and at a strain rate of 1.6 × 10–4 s–1. Correspondingly, the maximum stress amplitude and the lowest (negative) strain-rate sensitivity were observed at 473 K. Serrated plastic flow took place irrespective of boron doping and was more significant in a fine-grained Ni3 (Si,Ti) alloy. The static aging at 473 K resulted in reduced flow stress. The activation energy for serrated plastic flow was estimated to be about 57 kJ mol–1, suggestive of being smaller than that for lattice diffusion of solutes. The serrated plastic flow behavior of Ni3 (Si,Ti) alloys was compared with that of L12 Co3Ti alloys, and is qualitatively explained on the basis of the dynamics of solutes in the core of a dissociated screw dislocation.

By using biaxial bulge test, it is possible to predict sheet metal forming behavior during hot forming process. The purpose of this study is to obtain materials parameters for elevated temperature forming condition during biaxial bulge test of a nickel base superalloy in hemispherical die. At constant gas pressure, the strain rate in which the metal sheet experiences varies and therefore the strain rate sensitivity can be obtained in a single loading. Biaxial bulge tests on superalloy metal sheet were performed and results are in satisfactory agreement with uniaxial test results at elevated temperature.

Focus of this paper is to model the plastic forming behavior of AA6082, in order to develop the numerical FE analysis of the friction stir welding processes and the simulation of subsequent forming processes. During the friction stir welding process, the temperatures reached are until 500 °C and have a fundamental role for the correct performance of the process so the material data has to show a temperature dependency. Because of the tool rotation a strain rate sensitivity of the material has to be respected as well. In this context, the general material characteristics of AA6082 were first identified for different stress states. For the uniaxial state the standard PuD-Al used in the automotive industry was applied, for the shear state the ASTM B831-05 was used and for biaxial states the ISO 16842 was exploited. To characterize the plastic flow behavior of the AA6082 at elevated temperatures tensile tests were performed according to DIN EN ISO 6892-2 from 25 °C until 500 °C with a strain rate from 0.1 s-1up to 6.5 s-1.

Power Dissipation Efficiency

Workability, an important parameter in magnesium alloys forming process, can be evaluated by means of processing maps on the basis of dynamic materials model, constructed from experimentally generated flow stress variation with respect to strain, strain rate and temperature. To obtain the processing maps of extruded Mg-Zn-Mn-Y magnesium alloy with different secondary phases (I-phase and W-phase), hot compression tests were performed over a range of temperatures 523–673 K and strain rates 0.001~10s-1. The response of strain-rate sensitivity (m-value), power dissipation efficiency (ζ-value) and instability parameter (n-value) to temperature and strain rate were evaluated. By the superimposition of the power dissipation and the instability maps, the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and instability zones were identified and validated through micrographs. The observations were performed in order to describe the behavior of the material under hot forming operation in terms of material damage and micro-structural modification.

Influence of strain rate on mechanical properties of Fe-30Mn-3Si-4Al TWIP steel was studied by compression experiments, indicating that TWIP steel has strain rate softening effect, strain rate insensitivity, and also strain rate hardening effect. According to strain rate sensitivity m changing with strain rate, effect of strain rate on TWIP steel mechanical properties can be divided into three stages: quasi-static stage with strain rate ranging from 0.001 to 100 1/s; high-strain rate stage with strain rate ranging from 701 to 5108 1/s; super-high-strain rate stage with strain rate ranging from 10335 to 30147 1/s. Adiabatic temperature rise tends to increase with strain rate. Strain hardening exponent is divided into three parts: dislocation strengthening stage, twinning strengthening stage and thermal softening stage.

Method Analysis

The effects of strain hardenability and strain rate sensitivity on the plastic flow and deformation inhomogeneity during equal channel angular pressing were studied using a finite element method analysis. In this study, perfect plastic nonhardening and rate-insensitive materials, and rate-sensitive materials were considered. In case of the nonhardening and rate-insensitive materials, the deformed geometry was predicted to be quite uniform and homogeneous. Deformation inhomogeneity developed, however, in materials with finite work-hardening exponent and strain-rate sensitivity. The corner gap formed in strain-hardening materials whereas the upper and lower channel gaps formed in strain-rate-sensitive materials. The deformation inhomogeneity was strongly dependent on the relative effects of strain-hardening exponent and strain-rate sensitivity. The predictions on the deformation inhomogeneity and the formation of corner and channel gaps were compatible with the experimental data published in the literature.
