The stability of plastic region is extended by the pulsed electric current with the increase of critical strain and the extension of waiting time.Meanwhile, the dislocation density, affecting the plastic instabilities due to the interaction between solute atoms and mobile dislocations, is greatly reduced, which plays a dominant role in the suppression of serrated flow.展开更多

During EPR at low temperature (150-250℃), numerous twins formed in the alloy. After EPR at a high temperature (350℃), the number of twins reduced and some dynamic recrystallization (DRX) grains formed at grain boundaries and twinned regions. The synergic thermal and athermal effects generated by electropulsing, which promoted dislocation motion, induced a few small DRX grains, and ductile bandings were mainly re- sponsible for large-strain deformation during EPR. The inclination angle of the basal pole stemmed from the counterbalance of the inclina- tion direction of the basal pole between the DRX grains and deformed coarse grains.展开更多

Here we study the creep deformation of an Al-Cu-Li alloy with the assistance of electropulsing and subsequent microstructural observations. We find that creep strain increased drastically under electropulsing and was almost twelve times as much as that of the non-pulsed sample. Microstructural observations confirmed that dislocation reconfiguration happens via electropulsing, namely helical dislocations being opened rapidly. This opened dislocation structure can possess a much higher mobility than the initial helical dislocation, which mostly responsible for the greatly increased creep strain. Our results revealed a new mechanism accountable for the distinctly electroplastic creep deformation.展开更多

During EAB, pulsed current(PC) decreases blanking load and improves blanked surface quality,and higher frequency has a more effective improvement;when the frequency reaches 600 Hz, the whole punched hole fracture is improved to smooth zone. Moreover, EAB does not influence the microstructure and does not induce obvious annealing, and this process is advantageous to the materials that cannot change microstructure.During EASUE, PC can reduce extrusion load and enhance extrusion height, and higher frequency also has a more effective improvement. Both processes indicate that introducing PC can effectively improve the part quality and have an application prospection.展开更多

The effect of temperature on dynamic recrystallization (DRX) of AZ31 alloy was studied at differentconditions. One-parameter approach was used to analyze the critical conditions of DRX, the critical stress was obtainedunder different temperatures, and the related results were validated by metallography observation. The results showed thatDRX of AZ31 alloy occurred at 200 ℃ without pulse current. When pulse current with 150 Hz/50 V parameter wasapplied at room temperature, DRX occurred, while DRX was not completed until temperature over 150 ~C. With theanalysis result of critical conditions of DRX based on one-parameter approach, the relationship between critical stress andpeak stress obtained in this present study is σc = (0.746-0.773)σp.展开更多

The experimental results showed that pulse current can effec-tively reduce the springback and the bending force compared to the experiments without current. The frequency has a moresignificant influence on bending force and springback than electric current density. Electroplastic (EP) effect begins towork when pulse current parameters reach a threshold value. To explore the mechanism of EPA V-bending, themicrostructure evolution and fracture surface of the bending specimen were studied. It was found that pulse current canpromote the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) of magnesium alloy compared to traditional hot formingprocess. The fracture mode of AZ31B under EPA V-bending evolves from brittle fracture to ductile fracture withincreasing pulse current parameters. Based on the discussion of athermal and thermal effects of EP effect, the mechanismof pulse current to promote DRX is studied and athermal effect is proved to exist.展开更多

The materials are shape memoryTi49.3Niso.7 alloy and metastable austenite transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steel. The paper contains experimentalresults of current impact on the "stress-strain" curves of the material. It has been taken an experimental measurement ofthe sample temperature during the test. It is shown that the shape of a stress-strain curves and type of the serrate plasticflow, connected with the martensitic transformation and electroplastic effect, depend on the current modes.
