The high-temperature deformation behavior of the single-phase α (Ti-7.0Al-1.5V) and α + β (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy were determined and compared within the framework of self-consistent scheme at various temperature ranges. For this purpose, isothermal hot compression tests were conducted at temperatures between 650°C ~ 950°C to determine the effect of α/β phase volume fraction on average flow stress under hot-working condition. The flow behavior of α phase was estimated from the compression test results of single-phase α alloy whose chemical composition is close to that of α phase of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. On the other hand, the flow stress of β phase in Ti-6Al-4V was predicted by using self-consistent method. The flow stress of α phase was higher than that of β phase above 750°C, while the β phase revealed higher flow stress than α phase at 650°C. Also, at temperature above 750°C, the predicted strain rate of β phase was higher than that of α phase. It was found that the relative strength between α and β phase significantly varied with temperature.

Isothermal compression of near alpha Ti-5.6Al-4.8Sn-2.0Zr alloy is conducted on a Thermecmaster-Z simulator at the deformation temperatures ranging from 1173 K to 1333 K, the strain rates ranging from 0.001 s-1 to 10.0 s-1 at an interval of an order magnitude and the height reductions ranging from 50% to 70%. The primary grain size is measured at an OLYMPUS PMG3 microscope with the quantitative metallography SISC IAS V8.0 image analysis software. A multi-scale constitutive model coupling the grain size, volume fraction and dislocation density is established to represent the deformation behavior of near alpha Ti-5.6Al-4.8Sn-2.0Zr alloy in high temperature deformation, in which the flow stress is decomposed a thermal stress and an athermal stress. A Kock-Mecking model is adopted to describe the thermally activated stress, and an athermal stress model accounts for the working hardening and Hall-Petch effect. A genetic algorithm (GA)-based objective optimization technique is used for determining material constants in this study. The mean relative difference between the predicted and experimental flow stress is 5.98%, thus it can be concluded that the multi-scale constitutive model with high prediction precision can efficiently predict the deformation behavior of near alpha Ti-5.6Al-4.8Sn-2.0Zr alloy in high temperature deformation.

AbstractHigh temperature deformation behavior of BFe10-1-2 cupronickel alloy was investigated by means of isothermal compression tests in the temperature range of 1,023~1,273 K and strain rate range of 0.001~10 s–1. Based on orthogonal experiment and variance analysis, the significance of the effects of strain, strain rate and deformation temperature on the flow stress was evaluated. Thereafter, a constitutive equation was developed on the basis of the orthogonal analysis conclusions. Subsequently, standard statistical parameters were introduced to verify the validity of developed constitutive equation. The results indicated that the predicted flow stress values from the constitutive equation could track the experimental data of BFe10-1-2 cupronickel alloy under most deformation conditions.

In this study, high-temperature deformation behavior of newly developed beta-gamma TiAl alloys was investigated in the context of the dynamic-materials model (DMM). Processing maps representing the efficiency of power consumption for microstructure evolution were constructed utilizing the results of compression test at temperatures ranging from 1000oC to 1200oC and strain rates ranging from 10-4/s to 102/s and Artificial Neural Network simulation method. With the help of processing map and microstructural analysis, the optimum processing condition for the betagamma TiAl alloy was investigated. The role of β phase was also discussed in this study.

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.

The deformation behavior in isothermal compression of Ti-5Al-4Mo-2Cr-4Zr-2Sn-1Fe alloy was investigated at the deformation temperature of 800°C, 850°C, 900°C, 950°C and 1000°C, the strain rate of 0.01s-1, 0.1s-1, 1.0s-1and 10.0s-1, and the height reduction of 70%. The flow stress increases rapidly with the increasing of strain at the beginning of deformation. When the strain exceeds a certain value, the flow stress begins to decline and becomes steady. With the increasing of deformation temperature and decreasing of strain rate, the steady stress and peak stress decrease significantly. The effect of strain on the processing maps of Ti-5Al-4Mo-2Cr-4Zr-2Sn-1Fe alloy is obvious. As the strain increases, the instable region moves towards high temperature and high strain rate area. Meanwhile, the contour of efficiency of power dissipation becomes more and more intensive, and the region with high efficiency of power dissipation reduces. Strain rate of 0.01s-1and deformation temperature of 900°C are the optimum processing parameters for Ti-5Al-4Mo-2Cr-4Zr-2Sn-1Fe alloy forging under strain of 0.3.

The effect of alloying element (such as Cr, Zr, and Ir) addition on the high-temperature creep deformation behavior of C40/C11b lamellar-structured (Mo0.85Nb0.15)Si2 silicide crystals was examined. The results indicated that these additions all lead to a decrease in the steady-state creep strain rate (SSCR) when the applied stress is parallel to the lamellar interface. To clarify the origin of this, the dependence of the creep deformation behavior on the microstructure was determined in detail. As a result, it was found that the C40 phase acts as a strengthening phase during the deformation of the C40/C11b duplex-phase crystals. The variant-1-type C11b phase grains, whose loading orientation is parallel to [001], also acts as an effective strengthening component. The decrease in SSCR by Cr or Zr addition is attributed to the increase in volume fraction of those C40 phase and C11b-V1 grains. The refinement of microstructure by Ir addition was also found to result in a modest decrease in the SSCR.
