To study the significance of solute elements, the material was solution-treated before deformation. The low temperature yield strength of the as-extruded material significantly decreased after solutionizing process. A drastic change in the strength of solutionized alloy was recorded as the temperature was raised to 450 ℃, which was attributed to the promotion of grain boundary sliding(GBS). It was evidently shown that the slip-to-twinning transition temperature did not necessarily coincide with the strength-drop temperature. Based on constitutive equations, deformation parameters and related activation energy for the experimental alloy have been determined, incorporating the strain-dependent material constants. The verification of predictability of the developed models indicates a good agreement between experimental and predicted data.展开更多
