Experimental results show that the flow stress of as-quenched 7005 alloy is affected by both deformation temperature and strain rate, which can be represented by a Zener-Hollomon parameter in an exponent-type equation. By comparing the calculated flow stress and the measured flow stress, the results show that the calculated flow stress agrees well with the experimental result. Based on a dynamic material model, the processing maps were constructed for the strains of 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5. The maps and microstructural examination revealed that the optimum hot working domain is 270-340 °C, 0.05-0.5 s^-1 with the reasonable dynamic recrystallization. The instability domain exhibits adiabatic shear bands and flow localization, which should be avoided during hot working in order to obtain satisfactory properties.展开更多
Hot compression test of a novel nickel-free white alloy Cu?12Mn?15Zn?1.5Al?0.3Ti?0.14B?0.1Ce (mass fraction, %) was conducted on a Gleeble?1500 machine in the temperature range of 600?800 °C and the strain rate r...Hot compression test of a novel nickel-free white alloy Cu?12Mn?15Zn?1.5Al?0.3Ti?0.14B?0.1Ce (mass fraction, %) was conducted on a Gleeble?1500 machine in the temperature range of 600?800 °C and the strain rate range of 0.01?10 s?1. The constitutive equation and hot processing map of the alloy were built up according to its hot deformation behavior and hot working characteristics. The deformation activation energy of the alloy is 203.005 kJ/mol. An instability region appears in the hot deformation temperature of 600?700 °C and the strain rate range of 0.32?10 s?1 when the true strain of the alloy is up to 0.7. Under the optimal hot deformation condition of 800 °C and 10 s?1 the prepared specimen has good surface quality and interior structure. The designed nickel-free alloy has very similar white chromaticity with the traditional white copper alloy (Cu?15Ni?24Zn?1.5Pb), and the color difference between them is less than 1.5, which can hardly be distinguished by human eyes.展开更多

All specimens were prepared in the rolling direction. The forming limit diagrams （FLDs） of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet were determined experimentally by conducting stretch-forming tests at room temperature, 100, 200 and 300 ℃ Compared with the as-received sheet, the lowest limited strain of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet with tilted texture in the FLD increased by 79% at room temperature and 104% at 100 ℃. The texture also affected the extension of the forming limit curves （FLC） in the FLD. However, the FLCs of two kinds of sheets almost overlapped at temperature above 200 ℃. It can be concluded that the reduction of （0002） texture intensity is effective to the improvement of formability not only at room temperature but also at low-and-medium temperature. The effect of texture on FLDs becomes weak with increasing temperature.展开更多

On the basis of compression experimental results, an accurate phenomenological constitutive equation that coupled the effects of strain rate, deformation temperature and strain was modeled. Furthermore, a kinetic model of dynamic recrystallization and processing map were also presented. The results show that the flow stress of the studied Al?3.2Mg?0.4Er alloy can be predicted accurately using the proposed constitutive model. The evolution of microstructure and the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization can be described exactly in terms of S-curves with the proposed kinetic model. Moreover, the processing maps for hot working at different strains were constructed, suggesting the optimum processing conditions for this alloy are 573 K, 0.001 s?1 and 723 K, 0.001?0.1 s?1.展开更多

The constitutive equation for the pre-extruded ZK60A alloy can be described by hyperbolic sine function. Processing maps were constructed from true strains of -0.2 to -0.8. The alloy experienced complete dynamic recrystallization （DRX） and showed good workability in the temperature range of 300-400 ℃ and the strain rate range of 0.01-0.001 s-Z, where hot working in pre-extruded ZK60A, such as forging, can be carried out. For large deformation to true strain of over -0.5, strain rates above 0.1 s-1 are not recommended at all temperatures, where flow instability such as local strain concentration, twinning deformation, abnormal grain growth, micro-cracks, and shear fracture were observed. Climb-controlled dislocation creep dominates both the plastic deformation and nucleation of DRX of the pre-extruded ZK60A magnesium alloy.展开更多
