The deformation behaviour of this composite was studied using the uniaxial compression test, which was conducted at temperatures between 300 and 500℃ and strain rates between 0.001 and 1 s^-1. Results indicate that the stress-strain curves of the AA6061-10 vol.% SiC composite typically feature dynamic recrystallization. The steady stress can be described by a hyperbolic sine constitutive equation, and the activation energy of the composite is 230.88 kJ/mol. The processing map was established according to the dynamic materials model. The optimum hot deformation temperature is 450-500℃ and the strain rate is 1-0.1 s^-1. The instability zones of flow behaviour can also be identified using the processing map.展开更多
