New approach for modeling flow stress of aluminum alloy 6A10 considering temperature variation

The flow stress behavior of aluminum alloy 6A10 was studied by the hot compression tests at temperatures from 350°C to 550°C and strain rates from 0.1 s-1 to 10 s-1 with Gleeble-1500 thermo-mechanical simulator.The result demonstrates that the temperatures of specimen differ from initial ones affected by deformation conditions,and that the softening mechanism is dynamic recovery.A new approach was proposed to analyze the flow stress character directly from actual stress,strain,temperature and strain rate data,without performing any previous flow stress correction caused by temperature variation.Comparisons between the experimental and predicted results confirm that the established flow stress model can give reasonable estimation,indicating that the mentioned approach can be used in flow stress model analysis of the materials that undergo only dynamic recovery based on the data obtained under variable deformation temperature.
