Abstract:
The microstructure evolution and the mechanical behavior of Al-4.8Mg alloy were investigated by means of isothermal compression tests at various temperatures (280-520 °C) and strain rates (0.01-10 s-1). The results shown that there are three main mechanisms of dynamic softening of samples within the range of selected process parameters: dynamic recovery, dynamic recovery + dynamic recrystallization, and dynamic recrystallization, and the equiaxed dynamic recrystallization grain tends to be formed under higher temperature and higher strain rate. In order to accurately describe the dynamic recrystallization condition of Al-4.8Mg alloy under a wide range of hot deformation parameters, an improved dynamic recrystallization critical conditions model is proposed based on deformation activation energy and work-hardening rate. Additionally, a two-stage physically constitutive model considering the influence of work hardening-dynamic recovery and dynamic recrystallization is established. Comparisons between the predicted and experimental data indicate that the proposed model can adequately predict the flow stress in the range of selected process parameters with the average absolute relative error of 4.02%.
