Finite element (FE) simulation can obtain the distribution of strain, strain rate, temperature and die filling status, which indicates state-of-stress (SOS) workability decided by die shape and different processing conditions. On the basis of this, a new material driven analysis method for hot deformation was put forward by the combination of FE simulation with 3D processing maps, which can demonstrate material workability of the entire hot deformation process including SOS workability and intrinsic workability. The hot forging process for hard-to-work metal magnesium alloy was studied, and the 3D thermomechanical FE simulation including 3D processing maps of complex hot forging spur bevel gear was first conducted. The hot forging experiments were carried out. The results show that the new method is reasonable and suitable to determine the aoorooriate nrocess narameters.展开更多

A cup-shaped component of Mg-4 Al-2 Ba-2 Ca(ABa X422) alloy was forged in the temperature range of 300-500 °C and at speeds in the range of 0.01-10 mm/s with a view to validate the processing map and study the ...A cup-shaped component of Mg-4 Al-2 Ba-2 Ca(ABa X422) alloy was forged in the temperature range of 300-500 °C and at speeds in the range of 0.01-10 mm/s with a view to validate the processing map and study the microstructural development. The process was simulated through finite-element method to estimate the local and average strain rate ranges in the forging envelope. The processing map exhibited two domains in the following ranges:(1) 300-390 °C and 0.0003-0.001 s^-1, and(2) 400-500 °C and 0.0003-0.3 s^-1 and both represented dynamic recrystallization(DRX). The map revealed a wide flow instability regime at higher strain rates and temperatures lower than 400 °C, in which flow localization occurred. Forgings produced under conditions of the above two domains were sound and symmetrical, and had finer grain sizes when being forged in the first domain. However, when being forged in the flow instability regimes, the alloy fractured before the final shape was reached. The experimental load-stroke curves for the conditions within the domains correlated well with the simulated ones, whereas the curves obtained in the instability regime were uneven.展开更多
