At high temperatures, dynamic recovery, continuous dynamic recrystallization, grain boundary sliding and the activation of additional slip systems lead to an improvement of the ductility of the alloys. The elongation to failure is nearly independent of the strain rate between 473 and 523 K at 10-2 s-1 and 10-1 s-1, which is related to the strain rate dependence of the critical resolved shear stress（CRSS） for nonbasal slip. Despite the high temperature, twins are even observed at 573 K and 10-3 s-1 because they have a low CRSS.展开更多

It is observed that the sheet has a strong initial basal fiber texture andmechanical twinning becomes prevalent to accommodate the high-rate deformation. The yield strength and ultimate tensile strengthmonotonically increase with increasing the strain rate, while the strain hardening exponent proportionally decreases with increasingthe strain rate due to twinning-induced softening. The total elongation at fracture distinctly decreases as the strain rate increasesunder quasi-static tension, while the effect of strain rate on the total elongation is not distinct under dynamic tension. Fractographicanalysis using a scanning electron microscope reveals that the fracture is a mixed mode of ductile and brittle fracture.展开更多

Meanwhile,the flow stress curve turns into a steady state at high temperature and lower strain rate.The moderate temperature of 350 ℃and strain rate of 0.01 s-1 are appropriate to this alloy.展开更多
