In order to obtain the high temperature flow behavior of as-cast SA508-3 low alloy steel, the stress-strain curves of steel are obtained by Gleeble thermal simulation compression test at deformation temperature 800°C-1200°C and strain rate 0.001s-1-1s-1. Based on Laasraoui two-stage flow stress model, a high temperature flow stress model is established by multiple linear regression method. The results show that the peak stress characteristics are not obvious at low temperature and high strain rate, which is a typical dynamic recovery characteristic. Meanwhile, the peak stress characteristics are obvious at high temperature and low strain rate, which is a typical dynamic recrystallization characteristic. By means of the comparisons between experiments and calculations, the Laasraoui two-stage flow stress model can truly reflect flow behavior of steel at high temperature, which provides theoretical guidance for the hot deformation of the steel.

The effects of processing parameters on deformation behavior of a new near β titanium alloy were investigated by using compression tests. The experiments were carried out in the Gleeble-3800 thermal and mechanical simulator in the temperature range of 770-970°C and strain rate range of 10-3-10s-1, and height direction reduction of 70%. The results show that the flow stress of Ti-7333 titanium alloy increases obviously with the strain and reaches a peak, then decreases to a steady value. The steady and peak stress significantly decreases with the increase of deformation temperature and decrease of strain rate. The flow stress model of Ti-7333 titanium alloy during high temperature deformation was established by using the regression method. The average relative difference between the calculated and experimental flow stress is 6.33%. The flow stress model can efficiently predict the deformation behavior of Ti-7333 titanium alloy during high temperature 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.

Consistent and reasonable characterization of the material behavior under the coupled effects of strain, strain rate and temperature on the material flow stress is remarkably crucial in order to design as well as optimize the process parameters in the metal forming industrial practice. The objective of this work was to formulate an appropriate flow stress model to characterize the flow behavior of AISI-1045 medium carbon steel over a practical range of deformation temperatures (650–950 ∘ C) and strain rates (0.05–1.0 s − 1 ). Subsequently, the Johnson-Cook flow stress model was adopted for modeling and predicting the material flow behavior at elevated temperatures. Furthermore, surrogate models were developed based on the constitutive relations, and the model constants were estimated using the experimental results. As a result, the constitutive flow stress model was formed and the constructed model was examined systematically against experimental data by both numerical and graphical validations. In addition, to predict the material damage behavior, the failure model proposed by Johnson and Cook was used, and to determine the model parameters, seven different specimens, including flat, smooth round bars and pre-notched specimens, were tested at room temperature under quasi strain rate conditions. From the results, it can be seen that the developed model over predicts the material behavior at a low temperature for all strain rates. However, overall, the developed model can produce a fairly accurate and precise estimation of flow behavior with good correlation to the experimental data under high temperature conditions. Furthermore, the damage model parameters estimated in this research can be used to model the metal forming simulations, and valuable prediction results for the work material can be achieved.

High-temperature plastic flow is the underlying process that governs the product quality in many advanced metal manufacturing technologies, such as extrusion, rolling, and welding. Data and models on the high-temperature flow behavior are generally desired in the design of these manufacturing processes. In this paper, quantitative constitutive analysis is carried out on 3Cr-1Si-1Ni ultra-high strength steel, which sheds light on the mathematic relation between the flow stress and the thermal-mechanical state variables, such as temperature, plastic strain, and strain rate. Particularly, the hyperbolic-sine equation in combination with the Zener-Hollomon parameter is shown to be successful in representing the effect of temperature and strain rate on the flow stress of the 3Cr-1Si-1Ni steel. It is found that the flow stress of the 3Cr-1Si-1Ni steel is significantly influenced by strain. The strain-dependence on flow stress is not identical at different temperatures and strain rates. In the constitutive model, the influence of strain in the constitutive analysis is successfully implemented by introducing strain-dependent constants for the constitutive equations. Fifth-order polynomial equations are employed to fit the strain-dependence of the constitutive constant. The proposed constitutive equations which considers the compensation of strain is found to accurately predict flow stress of the 3Cr-1Si-1Ni steel at the temperatures ranging from 800 °C to 1250 °C, strain rate ranging from 0.01/s to 10/s, and strain ranging from 0.05 to 0.6.

Hot deformation behavior of the 30%Mo/Cu-Al2O3 composite was investigated by hot compression tests on Gleeble-1500D thermal simulator in the temperature ranges of 450~750°C and the strain rate ranges of 0.01~5s-1, as the total strain is 0.7. The results show that the peak stress increases with the decreased deformation temperature or the increased strain rate. Based on the true stress-strain curves, the established constitutive equation represents the high-temperature flow behavior of the composite, and the calculated flow stresses are in good agreement with the high- temperature deformation experimental results.

The flow stress in the high-speed machining of titanium alloys depends strongly on the microstructural state of the material which is defined by the composition of the material, its starting microstructure, and the thermomechanical loads imposed during the machining process. In the past, researchers have determined the flow stress empirically as a function of mechanical state parameters, such as strain, strain rate, and temperature while ignoring the changes in the microstructural state such as phase transformations. This paper presents a microstructure-sensitive flow stress model based on the self-consistent method (SCM) that includes the effects of chemical composition, α phase and β phase, as well mechanical state imposed. This flow stress is developed to model the flow behavior of titanium alloys in machining at speed of higher than 5 m/s, characterized by extremely high strains (2–10 or higher), high strain rates (104–106 s−1 or higher), and high temperatures (600–1300 °C). The flow stress sensitivity to mechanical and material parameters is analyzed. A new SCM-based Johnson–Cook (JC) flow stress model is proposed whose constants and ranges are determined using experimental data from literature and the physical basis for SCM approach. This new flow stress is successfully implemented in the finite-element (FE) framework to simulate machining. The predicted results confirm that the new model is much more effective and reliable than the original JC model in predicting chip segmentation in the high-speed machining of titanium Ti–6Al–4V alloy.
