In order to explore the compressive properties of aluminium matrix composite reinforced with middle content SiC particles, hot compression behavior of 30%SiCp/2024A1 composite was investigated using Gleeble-1500 system at a temperatures range from 350 to 500°C and strain rates from 0.01 to 10 s−1. The associated structural changes were studied by OM, SEM and TEM observations. The results show that the true stress–true strain curves exhibited a peak stress at a small strain (<0.1), after which the flow stresses decreased monotonically until high strains, showing a dynamic flow softening. The stress level decreased with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate, indicating that the composite is a positive strain rate sensitive material. And therefore there will be a enough time for dynamic recrystallization to complete nucleation and growth at low strain rate and high deformation temperatures.

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.

The hot compressive deformation behaviors of ZHMn34-2-2-1 manganese brass are investigated on Thermecmastor-Z thermal simulator over wide processing domain of temperatures (923K-1073K) and strain rates (0.01s-1-10s-1). The true stress-strain curves exhibit a single peak stress, after which the stress monotonously decreases until a steady state stress occurs, indicating a typical dynamic recrystallization. A revised constitutive model coupling flow stress with strain, strain rate and deformation temperature is established with the material constants expressed by polynomial fitting of strain. Moreover, better prediction ability of the constitutive model is achieved by implementation of a simple approach for modified the Zener-Hollomon parameter considering the compensation of strain rate and temperature increment. By comparing the predicted and experimented values, the correlation coefficient and mean absolute relative error are 0.997 and 2.363%, respectively. The quantitative statistical results indicate that the proposed constitutive model can precisely characterize the hot deformation behavior of ZHMn34-2-2-1 manganese brass.

In this work, the Mg-3Sn-2Al-1Zn (TAZ321, wt. %) alloy with excellent high temperature resistance was compressed using a Gleeble-3500 thermo-mechanical simulator at a wide temperature and the strain rate range. The kinetics analyses showed that the dominant deformation mechanism was likely caused by the cross slipping of dislocations. A constitutive equation which expressed the relationship between the flow stress, deformation temperature, and strain rate was established, and the average activation energy Q was calculated to be 172.1 kJ/mol. In order to delineate the stability and instability working domains, as well as obtain the optimum hot working parameters of the alloy, the hot processing maps in accordance with Prassad’s criterion are constructed at the true strain of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8, respectively. Based on the hot processing map and microstructure observation, the optimum hot working parameter was determined to be 350 °C/1 s−1. The continuous fine dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) grains occurred in the optimum deformation zone. The predicted instability domains was identified as T = 200–300 °C, ε ˙ = 10−2–1 s−1, which corresponded to the microstructure of deformation twinning and micro cracks at the intersection of grain boundaries.

Hot deformation behavior of Fe-30Mn-0.11C steel was investigated. Hot compression tests were carried out at various temperatures ranging from 800 °C to 1200 °C and at different strain rates of 0.01 s−1 to 10 s−1. The constitutive equation based on peak stress was established. Hot processing maps at different strains and recrystallization diagrams were also established and analyzed. The results show that dynamic recrystallization easily occur at high deformation temperatures and low strain rates. Safe and unstable zones are determined at the true strain of 0.6 and 0.7, and the hot deformation process parameters of partial dynamic recrystallization of the tested steel are also obtained.

Dynamic deformation behaviors of aluminum alloy Al1060 (FCC metal) are studied by the uniaxial compression tests on the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar over wide temperature and strain rate ranges. The experimental results show that the flow stress is both strain rate and temperature sensitivity. The flow stress decreases with increasing temperature when the strain rate keeps constant. When the temperature keeps constant, the flow stress increases with increasing strain rate. Considering the thermal activation of dislocation gliding in the dynamic deformation process, a physical-based constitutive model is developed based on the experimental results to predict the flows stress of Al1060 at a given strain rate and temperature. The material constants in the constitutive model are determined by the nonlinear genetic algorithm. The true stress-true strain curves predicted by the proposed constitutive models can give good correlations with the experimental results, which confirm that the proposed physical-based constitutive can accurately characterize the dynamic deformation behaviors of the studied aluminum alloy Al1060.

The microstructure and stress variation of semisolid 7A04 alloy have been studied through unconstrictive isothermal compressing test. The results show that the relationships between true stress and true strain at different deformation temperatures and strain rates are the same, and the peak stress in the curve of true stress and true strain mainly depends on deformation temperature and strain rate. Analysis on the microstructure of compressive specimen demonstrates that segregation of liquid-solid phase is mainly affected by strain rate and deformation temperature. There are mainly two kinds of flow in liquid phase: either from the region with relatively large hydrostatic compressive stress to the region with relatively small hydrostatic compressive stress or from the grain boundaries perpendicular to the compressive axis to the grain boundaries with a certain directional angle to the compressive direction. Based on the above results, the microstructure and stress variation mainly depend on deformation temperature, strain rate and stress state.

Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior in a Cu-0.65Sn-0.025P (mass%) alloy (Cu-Sn-P), which had been newly developed for high strength copper tubes, was systematically investigated. For this purpose, an orientation-controlled bicrystal ( =28o); a model samples of the as-casted billet having coarse columnar grains, was hot deformed in compression at 1073 K at true strain rates from 2 x 10-3 s-1 to 2 x 10-1 s-1 in vacuum. Appearance of peak stress, where DRX sets in, was much delayed in Cu-Sn-P alloy compared with that in Cu and the other copper alloys. While nucleation of new grains preferentially took place at grain boundary, this tendency became more significant with decreasing strain rate. Almost all the new grains were annealing twins (3) formed behind the migrating grain boundary. The more preferential nucleation at grain boundary with decreasing strain rate could be, therefore, reasonably understood by easier and more extensive occurrence of grain boundary migration at lower strain rate.

The hot compression behavior of ZK60 magnesium alloy was investigated at the temperatures from 523 to 673K and strain rates from 0.001 to 1s-1 on Gleeble-1500 thermal simulator. The results show that flow stress of ZK60 magnesium alloy decreases with the increase of deformation temperature and the decrease of strain rate. The flow stress curves obtained from experiments can be described in four different stages, i.e., work hardening stage, transition stage, softening stage and steady stage. For higher temperature and lower strain rate, the transition and softening stage are less obvious. The onset of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurred before the stress peak in true stress-true strain curves. The critical stress characterizing the onset of DRX rises with the increase of strain rate and/or the decrease of deformation temperature. The constitutive equation of ZK60 magnesium alloy during hot compression was constructed allowing for the effect of true strain on materials constants. The predicted stress-strain curves according to the constitutive equation are in good agreement with experimental results.
