Kinetics and critical conditions for initiation of dynamic recrystallization during hot compression deformation of AISI 321 austenitic stainless steel

Dynamic recrystallization behavior of AISI 321 austenitic stainless steel were studied using hot compression tests over the range of temperatures from 900 °C to 1200 °C and strain rates from 0.001 s^-1 to 1 s^-1. The critical strain and stress for initiation of dynamic recrystallization were determined by plotting strain hardening rate vs. stress curves and a constitutive equation describing the flow stress at strains lower than peak strain. Also, the strain at maximum flow softening was obtained and the effect of deformation conditions (Z parameter) on the critical strain and stress were analyzed. Finally, the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization was calculated at different deformation conditions using these critical values. Results showed that the model used for predicting the kinetics of dynamic recrystallization has a great consistency with the data, in the form of θ-ε curves, directly acquired from experimental flow curves.     

Prediction of Flow Stress in Cadmium Using Constitutive Equation and Artificial Neural Network Approach

A model is developed to predict the constitutive flow behavior of cadmium during compression test using artificial neural network (ANN). The inputs of the neural network are strain, strain rate, and temperature, whereas flow stress is the output. Experimental data obtained from compression tests in the temperature range ?30 to 70 °C, strain range 0.1 to 0.6, and strain rate range 10^?3 to 1 s^?1 are employed to develop the model. A three-layer feed-forward ANN is trained with Levenberg-Marquardt training algorithm. It has been shown that the developed ANN model can efficiently and accurately predict the deformation behavior of cadmium. This trained network could predict the flow stress better than a constitutive equation of the type $ \dot{\upvarepsilon } = A\sinh (\upalpha /\upsigma )^{n} \exp ( - Q/RT) $ .     

A journey with prasad’s processing maps

The constitutive flow behavior of austenitic stainless steel types AISI 304L, 316L, and 304 in the temperature range of 873 K (600 °C) to 1473 K (1200 °C) and strain-rate range of 0.001 s⁻¹–100 s⁻¹ has been evaluated with a view to establishing processing-microstructure-property relationships during hot working. The technique adopted for the study of constitutive behavior is through establishing processing maps and instability maps, and interpreting them on the basis of dynamic materials model (DMM). The processing maps for 304L have revealed a domain of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurring at 1423 K (1150 °C) at 0.1 s⁻¹, which is the optimum condition for hot working of this material. The processing maps of 304 predict DRX domain at 1373 K (1100 °C) and 0.1 s⁻¹. Stainless steel type 316L undergoes DRX at 1523 K (1250 °C) and 0.05 s⁻¹. At 1173 K (900 °C) and 0.001 s⁻¹ this material undergoes dynamic recovery (DRY). In the temperature and strain rate regimes other than DRX and DRY domains, austenitic stainless steels exhibit flow localization. Large-scale experiments using rolling, forging, and extrusion processes were conducted with a view to validating the conclusions arrived at from the processing maps. The “safe” processing regime predicted by processing maps has been further refined using the values of apparent activation energy during deformation. The validity and the merit of this refining procedure have been demonstrated with an example of press forging trials on stainless steel 316L. The usefulness of this approach for manufacturing stainless steel tubes and hot rolled plates has been demonstrated.

Flow stress and dynamic recrystallization behavior of Al-9Mg-1.1Li-0.5Mn alloy during hot compression process

The flow stress behavior of spray-formed Al-9Mg-1.1Li-0.5Mn alloy was studied using thermal simulation tests on a Gleeble-3500 machine over deformation temperature range of 300-450 °C and strain rate of 0.01-10 s^?1. The microstructural evolution of the alloy during the hot compression process was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron back scatter diffractometry (EBSD). The results show that the flow stress behavior and microstructural evolution are sensitive to deformation parameters. The peak stress level, steady flow stress, dislocation density and amount of substructures of the alloy increase with decreasing deformation temperature and increasing strain rate. Conversely, the high angle grain boundary area increases, the grain boundary is in serrated shape and the dynamic recrystallization in the alloy occurs. The microstructure of the alloy is fibrous-like and the main softening mechanism is dynamic recovery during steady deformation state. The flow stress behavior can be represented by the Zener-Hollomon parameter Z in the hyperbolic sine equation with the hot deformation activation energy of 184.2538 kJ/mol. The constitutive equation and the hot processing map were established. The hot processing map exhibits that the optimum processing conditions for Al-9Mg-1.1Li-0.5Mn alloy are in deformation temperature range from 380 to 450 °C and strain rate range from 0.01 to 0.1 s^?1.     

Characterization of hot deformation and microstructure evolution of a new metastable β titanium alloy

The hot deformation characteristics of as-forged Ti?3.5Al?5Mo?6V?3Cr?2Sn?0.5Fe?0.1B?0.1C alloy within a temperature range from 750 to 910 °C and a strain rate range from 0.001 to 1 s^?1 were investigated by hot compression tests. The stress?strain curves show that the flow stress decreases with the increase of temperature and the decrease of strain rate. The microstructure is sensitive to deformation parameters. The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) grains appear while the temperature reaches 790 °C at a constant strain rate of 0.001 s^?1 and strain rate is not higher than 0.1 s^?1 at a constant temperature of 910 °C. The work-hardening rate θ is calculated and it is found that DRX prefers to happen at high temperature and low strain rate. The constitutive equation and processing map were obtained. The average activation energy of the alloy is 242.78 kJ/mol and there are few unstable regions on the processing map, which indicates excellent hot workability. At the strain rate of 0.1 s^?1, the stress?strain curves show an abnormal shape where there are two stress peaks simultaneously. This can be attributed to the alternation of hardening effect, which results from the continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) and the rotation of DRX grains, and dynamic softening mechanism.

Effect of Nb particles on the flow behavior of TiAl alloy

High temperature compressive deformation behaviors of PM-TiAl alloy containing Nb particles (Ti–45Al–5Nb–0.4W/2Nb (at. %)) were investigated at temperatures ranging from 1050 °C to 1200 °C, and strain rates from 0.001 s⁻¹ to 1 s⁻¹. The flow curves were employed to develop constitutive equations, and the apparent activation energy of deformation Q was determined as 447.35 kJ/mol. A revised processing map was constructed on the basis of the flow stress, which can accurately describe the deformation behaviors and predict the optimum hot forging condition. The addition of 2% Nb particles reduces the peak stress and increases the activation energy of TiAl-based intermetallic, however, it increases the instable domain in the processing map.     

Thermomechanical characterization of β-stabilized Ti–45Al–7Nb–0.4W–0.15B alloy

The correlation between hot deformation parameters and the workability of β-stabilized Ti–45Al–7Nb–0.4W–0.15B (at. %) alloy was studied in the temperature range 1000–1200 °C and the strain rate range 0.001–1 s^?1. Deformation mechanisms were characterized by detailed analyses of the deformation behavior and microstructural observations. The results indicate that the deformation and recrystallization occurred preferentially in the grain boundary β phases because its good high temperature deformability enhances grain boundary sliding and migration, and thus improves the workability. Decomposition of the β phase to α₂ and γ phases partly accommodates the stress concentration and is thus beneficial in hot deformation. Appropriate deformation processing parameters were suggested based on the processing map, and were successfully applied in the quasi-isothermal canned forging of industrial-scale billets.

The Effect of Texture on the Corrosion Behavior of AZ31?Mg Alloy

Magnesium (Mg) grains show anisotropic corrosion behavior, which implies that the single-phase, hot-rolled Mg alloy AZ31 sheet, if highly textured, will have different corrosion performance depending on its crystallographic orientation of the grains. Its rolling surface, dominated by (0001) basal crystallographic planes, is more corrosion resistant than its cross-section surface, which is mainly composed of $ \{ 10\overline{1} 0\} $ and $ \{ 11\overline{2} 0\} $ prismatic crystallographic planes. Furthermore, grain refinement by hot rolling is beneficial to the overall corrosion resistance of AZ31 because of the dissolution of AlMn(Fe) intermetallic precipitates in the alloy. Surface compressive deformation machining can lead to refined grains and an expected preferred grain orientation, thus improving the corrosion resistance of AZ31 alloy.     

Characterization of hot deformation behavior of Haynes230 by using processing maps

The hot deformation characteristics of Haynes230 has been investigated in the temperature range 1050–1250 °C and strain rate range 0.001–10 s^?1 using hot compression tests. Power dissipation map for hot working are developed on the basis of the Dynamic Materials Model. The map exhibits two domains of dynamic recrystallization (DRX): one occurring in the temperature range of 1200–1250 °C and in the strain rate range of 0.001–0.03 s^?1, which associated with grain coarsening; the other occurring in the temperature range of 1100–1200 °C and strain rate range of 0.001–0.01 s^?1, which are the optimum condition for hot working of this material. The average apparent activation energy for hot deformation is calculated to be 449 kJ/mol. The material undergoes flow instabilities at temperatures of 1050–1100 °C and at strain rates of 1–10 s^?1, as predicted by the continuum instability criterion. The manifestations of the instabilities have been observed to be adiabatic shear bands which are confirmed by optical observation.     

Flow Stress and Processing Map of a PM 8009Al/SiC Particle Reinforced Composite During Hot Compression

Hot compression tests of 8009Al alloy reinforced with 15% SiC particles (8009Al/15%SiC_p composites) prepared by powder metallurgy (direct hot extrusion methods) were performed on Gleeble-3500 system in the temperature range of 400-550 °C and strain rate range of 0.001-1 s^?1. The processing map based on the dynamic material model was established to evaluate the flow instability regime and optimize processing parameters; the associated microstructural changes were studied by the observations of optical metallographic and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the flow stress increased initially and reached a plateau after peak stress value with increasing strain. The peak stress increased as the strain rate increased and deformation temperature decreased. The optimum parameters were identified to be deformation temperature range of 500-550 °C and strain rate range of 0.001-0.02 s^?1 by combining the processing map with microstructural observation.     

Hot Deformation Behavior of NiTiHf Shape Memory Alloy Under Hot Compression Test

In this study, the hot deformation behavior of Ni₄₉Ti₃₆Hf₁₅ alloy was investigated. Compression tests were carried out at temperatures ranging from 800 to 1100?°C and at the strain rates of 0.001?C1/s. The peak stress decreases with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate, a behavior which can be described by plotting the Zener-Hollomon parameter as a function of stress. It was realized that dynamic recrystallization (DRX) was responsible for flow softening. Most of the samples exhibited typical DRX stress-strain curves with a single peak stress followed by a gradual fall down stress. Microstructure evolution showed that new recrystallized grains formed in the vicinity of grain boundaries. The hyperbolic-sine-type constitutive model of Ni₄₉Ti₃₆Hf₁₅ alloy was obtained to provide basic data for determining reasonable hot-forming process. The activation energy for hot deformation of the Ni₄₉Ti₃₆Hf₁₅ alloy was close to 410?kJ/mol.

Hot Deformation Behavior and Processing Maps of 2099 Al-Li Alloy

Hot deformation behavior and processing maps of the 2099 Al-Li alloy are investigated by tensile test at the temperature range from 250 to 450 °C and the strain rate range from 0.001 to 5.0 s^?1. The typical true stress-true strain curves show that the flow stress increases with increasing the strain rate and decreasing the deforming temperature. All curves exhibit rapid work hardening at an initial stage of strain followed by remarkable dynamic softening. Based on the flow stress behavior, the processing maps are calculated and analyzed according to the dynamic materials model (DMM). The processing maps exhibit an instability domain in the temperature and strain rate ranges: T = 250-260 °C and \(\dot{\upvarepsilon }\)  = 0.1-0.5 s^?1. The maps also exhibit an optimum hot working condition in the stability domain that occurs in the temperature of 400 °C for a strain rate of 0.001 s^?1 and having a maximum efficiency of 60%. The microstructural examinations exhibit the occurrence of dynamic recovery (DRV) during hot deformation of the 2099 alloy which is the dominant softening mechanism in the alloy. The fracture behavior changes from a brittle fracture to a ductile fracture as strain rate decreases and temperature increases.     

Hot Deformation Processing Map and Microstructural Evaluation of the Ni-Based Superalloy IN-738LC

Hot deformation behavior of the Ni-based superalloy IN-738LC was investigated by means of hot compression tests over the temperature range of 1000-1200 °C and strain rate range of 0.01-1 s^?1.

Characterization of Hot Deformation Behavior of AMS 5708 Nickel-Based Superalloy Using Processing Map

The hot deformation behavior of AMS 5708 nickel-based superalloy was investigated by means of hot compression tests and a processing map in the temperature range of 950-1200 °C and a strain rate range of 0.01-1 s^?1 was constructed. The true stress-true strain curves showed that the maximum flow stress decreases with the increase of temperature and decrease of strain rate. The developed processing map based on experimental data, showed variations of efficiency of power dissipation relating to temperature and strain rate at constant strain. Interpretation of the processing map showed one stable domain, in which dynamic recrystallization was the dominant microstructural phenomenon, and one instability domain with flow localization. The results of interpretation of flow stress curves and processing map were verified by the microstructure observations. There are two optimum conditions for hot working of this alloy with efficiency peak of 0.36: the first is at 1150 °C for a strain rate of 1 s^?1 that produces a fine grained microstructure. The second is at 1200 °C for a strain rate of 0.01 s^?1 that produces a coarse grained microstructure.
