The deformation behavior of as-cast AZ61 alloy in the temperature range 300-450°C and in the strain rate range 0.01~5 s−1 has been studied using processing maps. For obtaining the processing map, the variation of the efficiency of power dissipation given by [2m/(m+1)] where ‘m’ is the strain rate sensitivity, is plotted as a function of temperature and strain rate. The map exhibited a domain of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurring at 425 °C and 0.1 s−1 which are the optimum parameters for hot working of the alloy.

This study investigated the deformation behavior of the Mo-10Ta alloy with a strain rate range of 102–105 s−1. The Split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of deformation conditions on the stress-strain relationship and strain rate sensitivity of the material within a strain rate range of 0.001–4500 s−1. The Shaped Charge Jet (SCJ) forming experiments under detonation loading was conducted to clarify the dynamic response and microstructure evolution of the material within an ultra-high strain rates range of 104–105 s−1. Based on the stress-strain relationship of Mo-10Ta alloy at high temperature (286–873 K) and high strain rate (460–4500 s−1), the influence of temperature and strain rate on the activation energy Q was analyzed. The results indicate that the material strain rate sensitivity increased with the increase in strain rate and strain. Meanwhile, the activation energy Q decreased as the temperature and strain rate increased. The plasticity of the Mo-10Ta alloy under the condition of SCJ forming was substantially enhanced compared with that under quasi-static deformation. The material grain was also refined under ultra-high strain rate, as reflected by the reduction in grain size from 232 μm to less than 10 μm.

The hot deformation behavior of Zr-4 alloy was studied in the temperature range 650-900°C and strain rate range 0.005-50s-1 using processing maps. The processing maps revealed three domains: the first occurs in the temperature range 780-820°C and strain rate range 0.005-0.05s-1, and has a peak efficiency of 45% at 790°C and 0.005s-1; the mechanism is the dynamic recrystallization. The second occurs in the temperature range greater than 900°C and strain rate range 0.05-0.8s-1, and has a peak efficiency of 40% at 900°C and 0.5s-1, which are the domains of dynamic recovery. In addition, the instability zones of flow behavior can also be recognized by the maps in the temperature range 650-780°C and strain rate range 0.01-0.1s-1, which should be strictly avoided in the processing of the material. Zr-4 alloy is the material for pressure tube applications in nuclear reactors and has better strength and a lower rate of hydrogen uptake compared to other materials under similar service conditions.

The hot deformation characteristics of TC18 titanium alloy were studied in the temperature range 750-850°C and strain rate range 0.001-1 s-1 by using hot compression tests. Processing maps for hot working are developed on the basis of the variations of efficiency of power dissipation with temperature and strain rate. The results reveal that the flow stress of TC18 is sensitive to strain rate. Processing map at stain of 0.6 reveals two domains: one is centered at 750°C and 0.001s-1; another is centered at 850°C and 0.001s-1. The maximum efficiency is more than 60%. According to the maps, the zone with the temperature range of 750-850°C and strain rate range of 0.01-0.001s-1 may be suitable for hot working

The hot deformation behavior of Nb-V-Ti microalloyed steel in the temperature range of 850°C~1100°C and the strain rate range of 0.001s-1~30s-1 was investigated by establishing the processing maps. The strain rate sensitivity (m), power dissipation efficiency (η) and instability parameter were calculated based on the experimental compression data and are plotted in the temperature–strain rate plane to obtain power dissipation and instability maps. The processing maps exhibit that the deformation at 1000°C and 2s-1 is one peak efficiency of power dissipation of 21%, the deformation at 1050°C and 0.01~0.001 s-1 is another peak efficiency of power dissipation of 45%. The optical microstructure observations show that they represent two dynamic recrystallization domains. Based on the above processing maps, the hot working parameters were optimized.

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.

AbstractThe phenomenon of superplasticity in an ordered FeAl based alloy is reported in this paper for the first time. The behavior of superplastic deformation for the FeAl based alloy (Fe-36.5at.%-2at.%Ti) with large grains of above 300 μm has been examined at 1000°C in a strain rate range from 1.39×10− 4 /s to 2.78×l0−2 /s. The maximum elongation of 208% for the FeAl based alloy with large grains has been obtained and the index of strain rate sensitivity, the m value, has a range of values from 0.25 to 0.42. The reason for the large elongation is ascribed to the dynamic recovery and recrystallization during deformation in this large grained alloy at high temperatures.

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.

The compression test on TC21 titanium alloy was carried out in the temperature range of 860~940oC and the strain rate range of 0.01~10s-1 on Gleeble-1500D hot simulation machine. And the hot deformation behavior was studied. The processing map was calculated and analyzed according the dynamic materials model. It is found that the flow stress of TC21 decreases with the increasing of the temperature and the decreasing of the strain rate. The flow stress curves are characterized by steady state at low strain rate( s-1)but discontinuous yield at high strain rate( s-1). The processing map established at the true strain of 0.4 shows that there are three regions, instability and safe and peak region, and the efficiencies of power dissipation are 0~25%,31%~37% and 43%~49% respectively. The peak region is the optimum hot working zone of TC21 titanium alloy.

In the present study, deformation heating generated by plastic deformation and its effect on the processing maps of Ti-15-3 titanium alloy were investigated. For this purpose, hot compression tests were performed on a Gleeble-3800 thermo-mechanical simulator in the temperature range of 850-1150 °C and strain rate range of 0.001-10 s1. The temperature rise due to deformation heating was calculated and the as-measured flow curves were corrected for deformation heating. Using the as-measured and corrected flow stress data, the processing maps for Ti-15-3 titanium alloy at a strain of 0.5 were developed on the basis Murty‘s and Babu’s instability criteria. The results show that both the instability maps based the two instability criteria are essentially similar and are characterized by an unstable region occurring at strain rates higher than 0.1 s1for almost the entire temperature range tested. The unstable regions are overestimated from the as-measured data due to the effect of deformation heating, indicating a better workability after correcting the effect of deformation heating. This is further conformed by the analysis based on strain rate sensitivity.

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.
