On the basis of experiments and dynamic material model, 2D processing maps and 3D power dissipation maps were developed for identification of exact instability regions and optimization of hot processing parameters. The experimental results indicated that the efficiency factor of energy dissipate （η） lowered to the minimum value when the deformation conditions located at the strain of 0.4, temperature of 300 ° C and strain rate of 1 s-1. The softening mechanism was dynamic recovery, the grain shape was mainly flat, and the portion of high angle grain boundary （〉15°） was 34%. While increasing the deformation temperature to 400 ° C and decreasing the strain rate to 0.1 s-1, a maximum value of η was obtained. It can be found that the main softening mechanism was dynamic recrystallization, the structures were completely recrystallized, and the portion of high angle grain boundary accounted for 86.5%. According to 2D processing maps and 3D power dissipation maps, the optimum processing conditions for the extrusion preform of the spray-formed Al？9.0Mg？0.5Mn？0.1Ti alloy were in the deformation temperature range of 340-450 ° C and the strain rate range of 0.01-0.1 s-1 with the power dissipation efficiency range of 38%？43%.展开更多

The experimental results show...The effect of compressive deformation of austenite on continuous cooling transformation microstructures for 22CrSH gear steel has been investigated using a Gleeble 1500 thermal simulator. The experimental results show that the deformation of austenite promotes the formation of proeutectoid ferrite and pearlite, and leads to the increase of critical cooling rate of proeutectoid ferrite plus pearlite microstructure. The grain boundary allotriomorphic ferrite occupies the austenite grain surfaces when the prior deformation takes place or the cooling rate is decreased, which causes a transition from bainite to acicular ferrite. The deformation enhances the stability of transformation from austenite to acicular ferrite, which results in an increase of M/A constituent.展开更多

The tests were performed on a Gleeble-1500 simulator in a temperature range of 1000-1150 °C and strain rate of 0.001-1.0 s-1, respectively. By regression analysis of the stress—strain data, the constitutive equation for FGH96 superalloy was developed in the form of hyperbolic sine function with hot activation energy of 693.21 kJ/mol. By investigating the deformation microstructure, it is found that partial and full dynamical recrystallization occurs in specimens deformed below and above 1100 °C, respectively, and dynamical recrystallization （DRX） happens more readily with decreasing strain rate and increasing deformation temperature. Finally, equations representing the kinetics of DRX and grain size evolution were established.展开更多

And, compression deformation behavior at room-temperature was studied. The results showed that the microstructure of Mg-8Zn-1Y alloy solidified under ambient pressure and super-high pressure was both mainly composed of ■-Mg and quasicrystal I-Mg3Zn6 Y. Solidification under super-high pressure contributed to refining solidified microstructure and changing morphology of the intergranular second phase. The morphology of intergranular second phase（quasicrystal I-Mg3Zn6Y） was transformed from continuous network（ambient pressure） to long island（high pressure） and finally to granular（super-high pressure） with the increase in pressure. The compressive strength, yield strength and rupture strain of the samples solidified under ambient pressure were significantly improved from 262.6 MPa, 244.4 MPa and 13.3% to 437.3 MPa, 368.9 MPa and 24.7% under the pressure of 6 GPa, respectively. Under ambient pressure, cleavage plane on compressive fracture was large and smooth. When it was solidified under the pressure ranging from 4 to 6 GPa, cleavage plane on compressive fracture was small and coarse. In addition, dimple, tear ridge and lobate patterns existed.展开更多

Microstructural characterization reveals that TiB particles act as grain refiners for primary base alloy and result in globular dendrites. It was observed that the wear resistance and strength of the alloy decreased when the master alloy addition increased beyond 20%, even though the dendrites become much finer and almost spherical in nature.展开更多

Compression tests were preformed in the temperature range of 653-773 K and in the strain rate range of 0.001-10 s-1 up to a true plastic strain of 0.7. The results indicate that the flow stress of the alloy increases with increasing strain rate at a given temperature,and decreases with increasing temperature at a given imposed strain rate. The relationship between the flow stress and the strain rate and the temperature was derived by analyzing the experimental data. The flow stress is in a hyperbolic sine relationship with the strain rate,and in an Arrhenius relationship with the temperature,which imply that the process of plastic deformation at an elevated temperature for this material is thermally activated. The flow stress of the alloy during the elevated temperature deformation can be represented by a Zener-Hollomon parameter with the inclusion of the Arrhenius term. The values of n,α and A in the analytical expressions of flow stress σ are fitted to be 5.62,0.019 MPa-1 and 1.51×1016 s-1,respectively. The hot deformation activation energy is 240.85 kJ/mol.展开更多

It has been shown that submicrongrained TC11 alloy can be obtained by compressive deformation below 725°C. During microstructure refinement, dynamic recrystallization occurs only in α phases, and β phases undergo a process of precipitation and growth. Compared with the situation of static annealing, deformation can not only enhance the precipitation and growth of β phases but also change the morphology of βprecipitates.展开更多

The hot compression deformation behaviors vary with decreasing fractal dimension owing to the change of microstructure caused by different parameters of the hot compressive deformation.The results indicate that TA15 alloy shows dynamic recrystallization characteristics at deformation temperature lower than 850℃while fractal dimension exhibits a moderate decreasing trend with the temperature increasing,and shows dynamic recovery characteristics at deformation temperature higher than 850℃while fractal dimension reduces rapidly with the temperature increasing.The fractal dimension displays non-linear relationship with fraction of primary phase and with aspect ratio of primary phase.展开更多

文摘The hot deformation behavior of Al?6.2Zn?0.70Mg?0.30Mn?0.17Zr alloy was investigated by isothermal compressiontest on a Gleeble?3500machine in the deformation temperature range between623and773K and the strain rate range between0.01and20s?1.The results show that the flow stress decreases with decreasing strain rate and increasing deformation temperature.Basedon the experimental results,Arrhenius constitutive equations and artificial neural network(ANN)model were established toinvestigate the flow behavior of the alloy.The calculated results show that the influence of strain on material constants can berepresented by a6th-order polynomial function.The ANN model with16neurons in hidden layer possesses perfect performanceprediction of the flow stress.The predictabilities of the two established models are different.The errors of results calculated by ANNmodel were more centralized and the mean absolute error corresponding to Arrhenius constitutive equations and ANN model are3.49%and1.03%,respectively.In predicting the flow stress of experimental aluminum alloy,the ANN model has a betterpredictability and greater efficiency than Arrhenius constitutive equations.

文摘The effect of compressive deformation of austenite on continuous cooling transformation microstructures for 22CrSH gear steel has been investigated using a Gleeble 1500 thermal simulator. The experimental results show that the deformation of austenite promotes the formation of proeutectoid ferrite and pearlite, and leads to the increase of critical cooling rate of proeutectoid ferrite plus pearlite microstructure. The grain boundary allotriomorphic ferrite occupies the austenite grain surfaces when the prior deformation takes place or the cooling rate is decreased, which causes a transition from bainite to acicular ferrite. The deformation enhances the stability of transformation from austenite to acicular ferrite, which results in an increase of M/A constituent.
文摘Hot deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of hot isostatically pressed FGH96 P/M superalloy were studied using isothermal compression tests. The tests were performed on a Gleeble-1500 simulator in a temperature range of 1000-1150 °C and strain rate of 0.001-1.0 s-1, respectively. By regression analysis of the stress—strain data, the constitutive equation for FGH96 superalloy was developed in the form of hyperbolic sine function with hot activation energy of 693.21 kJ/mol. By investigating the deformation microstructure, it is found that partial and full dynamical recrystallization occurs in specimens deformed below and above 1100 °C, respectively, and dynamical recrystallization （DRX） happens more readily with decreasing strain rate and increasing deformation temperature. Finally, equations representing the kinetics of DRX and grain size evolution were established.

文摘The microstructure of Mg-8Zn-1Y alloy solidified under super-high pressure was analyzed through X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and energy dispersive spectroscopy（EDS）. And, compression deformation behavior at room-temperature was studied. The results showed that the microstructure of Mg-8Zn-1Y alloy solidified under ambient pressure and super-high pressure was both mainly composed of ■-Mg and quasicrystal I-Mg3Zn6 Y. Solidification under super-high pressure contributed to refining solidified microstructure and changing morphology of the intergranular second phase. The morphology of intergranular second phase（quasicrystal I-Mg3Zn6Y） was transformed from continuous network（ambient pressure） to long island（high pressure） and finally to granular（super-high pressure） with the increase in pressure. The compressive strength, yield strength and rupture strain of the samples solidified under ambient pressure were significantly improved from 262.6 MPa, 244.4 MPa and 13.3% to 437.3 MPa, 368.9 MPa and 24.7% under the pressure of 6 GPa, respectively. Under ambient pressure, cleavage plane on compressive fracture was large and smooth. When it was solidified under the pressure ranging from 4 to 6 GPa, cleavage plane on compressive fracture was small and coarse. In addition, dimple, tear ridge and lobate patterns existed.

文摘The 6061 semi-solid aluminium alloy feedstocks prepared by near-liquidus casting were compressed in semi-solid state by means of Gleeble-3500 thermal-mechanical simulator.The relationship between the true stress and the true strain at different temperatures and strain rates was studied with the deformation degree of 70%.The microstructures during the deformation process were characterized.The deformation mechanism and thixo-forming properties of the semi-solid alloys were analyzed.The results show that the homogeneous and non-dendrite microstructures of semi-solid 6061Al alloy manufactured by near-liquidus casting technology could be transformed into semi-solid state with the microstructure suitable for thixo-forming which are composed of near-spherical grains and liquid phase with eutectic composition through reheating process.The deformation temperature and strain rate affect the peak stress significantly rather than steady flow stress.The resistance to deformation in semi-solid state decreases with the increase of the deformation temperature and decrease of the strain rate.At steady thixotropic deformation stage, the thixotropic property is uniform, and the main deformation mechanism is the rotating or sliding between the solid particles and the plastic deformation of the solid particles.
文摘The hot deformation behaviors of TA15 alloy,as well as the microstructure obtained after compressive deformation,were investigated.The results show that TA15 alloy exhibits a peak stress when deformed at temperature lower than 900℃,implying recrystallization characteristics.However,steady flow stress-stain behavior is observed without peak stress when deformation is employed at temperature higher than 900℃,showing recovery characteristics.Micro-deformation band appears at deformation temperature of 750℃,and equiaxed grains are found at 800℃,implying the occurrence of recrystallization.When deformed at 925℃,the specimen shows the recovery characteristics with dislocation networks and sub-grain boundaries.
文摘Aluminum-10% TiB master alloy was added in various proportions in 7178 Al alloy in order to examine the effect of TiB on grain refinement, wear and compressive deformation of the later one. Microstructural characterization reveals that TiB particles act as grain refiners for primary base alloy and result in globular dendrites. It was observed that the wear resistance and strength of the alloy decreased when the master alloy addition increased beyond 20%, even though the dendrites become much finer and almost spherical in nature.

文摘The hot deformation behaviors of FGH98 nickel-based powder superalloy were experimentally investigated and theoretically analyzed by Arrhenius models and machine learning(ML).Hot compression tests were conducted with a Gleeble-3800 thermo-mechanical simulation machine on the FGH98 superalloy at strain rates of 0.001–1 s–1 and temperatures of 1025–1175℃.The peak stresses under different deformation conditions were analyzed via the Sellars model and an ML-inspired Gaussian process regression(GPR)model.The prediction of the GPR model outperformed that from the Sellars model.In addition,the stress-strain responses were predicted by the GPR model and tested by experimentally measured stress-strain curves.The results indicate that the developed GPR model has great power with wide generalization capability in the prediction of hot deformation behaviors of FGH98 superalloy,as evidenced by the R2 value higher than 0.99 on the test dataset.

文摘The flow stress behavior of Al-3.5Cu-1.5Li-0.25(Sc+Zr) alloy during hot compression deformation was studied by isothermal compression test using Gleeble-1500 thermal-mechanical simulator. Compression tests were preformed in the temperature range of 653-773 K and in the strain rate range of 0.001-10 s-1 up to a true plastic strain of 0.7. The results indicate that the flow stress of the alloy increases with increasing strain rate at a given temperature,and decreases with increasing temperature at a given imposed strain rate. The relationship between the flow stress and the strain rate and the temperature was derived by analyzing the experimental data. The flow stress is in a hyperbolic sine relationship with the strain rate,and in an Arrhenius relationship with the temperature,which imply that the process of plastic deformation at an elevated temperature for this material is thermally activated. The flow stress of the alloy during the elevated temperature deformation can be represented by a Zener-Hollomon parameter with the inclusion of the Arrhenius term. The values of n,α and A in the analytical expressions of flow stress σ are fitted to be 5.62,0.019 MPa-1 and 1.51×1016 s-1,respectively. The hot deformation activation energy is 240.85 kJ/mol.

文摘To reduce internal residual stress and homogenize micro-property of hot-rolled ferrite steel,the cold compression deformation method with small reduction rate has been performed in the hot-rolled samples,and X-ray diffraction and nanoindentation test have been used to detect the residual stress and micro-property.The samples with deformation rate of 0-5.59%or annealing at 550℃ are analyzed.The results show that,due to the coupling effect of thermal expansion and cold contraction and the volume expansion of microstructural transformation from austenite to ferrite,compressive residual stress was found inside the hot-rolled samples.With the increase in cold compression deformation,the dislocation density increased and the microhardness increased gradually,and there is no obvious rule for the change of mean nano-hardness in micro-zone for the center of samples.However,the uniformity of nano-hardness in the micro-zone increased first and then decreased,and the value of residual stress has obvious corresponding relationship with the uniformity of micro-zone property.The cold compression deformation with appropriate reduction rate can reduce residual stress and improve nano-hardness uniformity of the hot-rolled samples,but more deformation(such as reduction rateε=5.59%)makes residual stress increase and makes uniformity of nano-hardness deteriorate.
文摘An investigation was performed on the effects of semi solid compression parameters,such as strain rate,compression temperature and heating time at these temperatures on deformation behaviors of two kinds of ZA27 alloys,one was modified by Zr and the other was unmodified.The results indicate that with the increasing of the strain,the stress of the modified composite first sharply increases to a peak value,then dramatically decreases to a plateau value,and again increases till the end of deformation.But for the unmodified,after being up to a peak value,the stress only decreases slowly.As the compression temperature or the heating time decreases,or the strain rate increases,the stress level and the cracking degree of these two kinds of alloys increase.Under the same deformation conditions,the stress level and the cracking degree of the unmodified alloy are higher than those of the modified one.But there is an exception that the stress level of the unmodified alloy is minimum and smaller than that of the modified one when deformed at the low temperature of 450℃.These phenomena were mainly discussed through analyzing the microstructures under different conditions and the deformation mechanisms at different deformation stages.
文摘This paper reviews various fabrication methods of ultrafine grained materials and their limitations briefly, and examines the possibility to produce ultrafine grained titanium alloy by compressive deformation preliminarily. It has been shown that submicrongrained TC11 alloy can be obtained by compressive deformation below 725°C. During microstructure refinement, dynamic recrystallization occurs only in α phases, and β phases undergo a process of precipitation and growth. Compared with the situation of static annealing, deformation can not only enhance the precipitation and growth of β phases but also change the morphology of βprecipitates.
文摘The goal of this study is to establish relationships between the hot compression deformation behaviors and the fractal dimension of primary phase morphology of TA15 titanium alloy using the analytical methods of metallurgical microscope and transmission electron microscope coupled with box-counting dimension method. The hot compression deformation behaviors vary with decreasing fractal dimension owing to the change of microstructure caused by different parameters of the hot compressive deformation.The results indicate that TA15 alloy shows dynamic recrystallization characteristics at deformation temperature lower than 850℃while fractal dimension exhibits a moderate decreasing trend with the temperature increasing,and shows dynamic recovery characteristics at deformation temperature higher than 850℃while fractal dimension reduces rapidly with the temperature increasing.The fractal dimension displays non-linear relationship with fraction of primary phase and with aspect ratio of primary phase.
