The hot deformatation characteristics of aluminium alloy 7050 were investigated by hot uniaxial compression tests in order to obtain the material parameters used in the CA model. The influences of process parameters(strain, strain rate and temperature) on the fraction of DRX and the average recrystallization grain(R-grain) size were investigated and discussed. It is found that larger stain, higher temperature and lower strain rate(less than 0.1 s^(–1)) are beneficial to the increasing fraction of DRX. And the deformation temperature affects the mean R-grain size much more greatly than other parameters. It is also noted that there is a critical strain for the occurrence of DRX which is related to strain rate and temperature. In addition, it is shown that the CA model with topology deformation is able to simulate the microstructural evolution and the flow behavior of aluminium alloy 7050 material under various deformation conditions.展开更多

The initiation and evolution of dynamic recrystallization were investigated with microstructure analysis and then the critical strain ε c for dynamic recrystallization initiation, the strain for maximum softening rate ε * and the steady strain ε s were obtained to be 2.92×10 -3 Z 0.1381 , 1.60×10 -3 Z 0.178 0 and 3.26×10 -2 × Z 0.097 2 respectively by analysis of work hardening rate strain θ ε curves, where Z is the Zener Hollomon parameter. The dynamic recrystallization fraction was determined using recrystallization theory, and the effects of initial grain size, strain rate and deformated temperature on the dynamic recrystallization kinetics were investigated. The results show: X DRX =1- exp(-3.23( ε-ε cε s-ε c ) 2.28 ), the dynamic recrystallization fraction is slightly delayed due to the somewhat larger initial grain size and markedly delayed with the decrease of temperature. On the other hand, it is significantly accelerated with the increase of the strain rate. Finally, the relationships between the initiation time, ending time of dynamic recrystallization and the deformed temperature were analyzed in detail.展开更多

In the present work, the cellular automaton (CA) program was developed to simulate the process of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) for aluminium alloy 7050. The material constants in CA models, including dislocation density, nucleation rate and grain growth, were determined by the isothermal compress tests on Gleeble 1500 machine. The model of dislocation density was obtained by linear regression method based on the experimental results. The influences of the deformation parameters on the percentage of DRX and the mean grain size for aluminium alloy 7050 were investigated in details by means of CA simulation. The simulation results show that, as temperature increases from 350 to 450 ℃ at a strain rate of 0.01 s?1, the percentage of DRX also increases greatly and the mean grain size decreases from 50 to 39.3 μm. The mean size of the recrystallied grains (R-grains) mainly depends on the Zener-Hollomon parameter. To obtain fine grain, the desired deformation temperature is determined from 400 to 450 ℃.展开更多

The increasing trend of the driving force for recrystallization is opposite to that of the deformation temperature, which is attributed to the number of operative slip system increasing as temperature increasing.展开更多

The activation energy（Q） for the tested steel is calculated to be around 682.99 k J/mol at a deformation strain of 0.6. Microstructural analysis by SEM shows that the dynamic recrystallization（DRX） behavior is dependent sensitively on the deformation strain, temperature and strain rate, while an exponential relationship between DRX grain size and Z parameter is obtained from the computational formula. Moreover, the M6C-type carbides（〈1 μm） act as the main prohibitor of grain coarsening, and the polynomial regression relationship between them is worked out. With electron backscatter diffraction（EBSD） observation, DRX is the main nucleation mechanism responsible for the formation of new grains during hot compression. In conclusion, the interaction between DRX affected by hot deformation parameters and carbides precipitation determines the ultimate grain size refinement.展开更多

Influence of Ce contents and heat-treatment on microstructure and tensile properties was analyzed. The results show that cast ZK60 alloy containing no Ce has coarse crystal grains, and lots of segregation aggregates around the grain-boundary. However, the alloys containing Ce have refined grains, and grain-boundaries are purified at the same time. Obvious dynamic recrystallization occurs in tested alloys after hot-extrusion. Tensile strength heightens with the increase of Ce content, and grows higher after aging at 150℃ for 024 h （T5 treatment）. Comparing tensile properties of investigated alloys in different states, it can be concluded that synthetical properties of the alloy with 1.51% Ce addition is the best of all. In extruded state, σb and δ of this alloy are 318.6 MPa and 14.4%, respectively. After aging for 24 h ,σb is 338.6 MPa and δ is 15.6%.展开更多

文摘Using the Gleeble-1500 D simulator, the hot deformation behavior and dynamic recrystallization critical conditions of the 10%Ti C/Cu-Al2O3(volume fraction) composite were investigated by compression tests at the temperatures from 450 °C to 850 °C with the strain rates from 0.001 s-1 to 1 s-1. The results show that the softening mechanism of the dynamic recrystallization is a feature of high-temperature flow true stress-strain curves of the composite, and the peak stress increases with the decreasing deformation temperature or the increasing strain rate. The thermal deformation activation energy was calculated as 170.732 k J/mol and the constitutive equation was established. The inflection point in the lnθ-ε curve appears and the minimum value of-(lnθ)/ε-ε curve is presented when the critical state is attained for this composite. The critical strain increases with the increasing strain rate or the decreasing deformation temperature. There is linear relationship between critical strain and peak strain, i.e., εc=0.572εp. The predicting model of critical strain is described by the function of εc=1.062×10-2Z0.0826.
文摘The development of the recrystallization texture of the alloy AA3104 was investigated by analysis of orientation distribution functions determined by X-ray diffraction,supported by EBSD local texture analysis.A typical β-fiber with nearly 20%Bs orientation {011}211 was detected in the final hot rolled sheet.At the beginning of annealing at 350 ℃,the cube component{001}100 got a sharp increase.TEM results show that the growth of both number and size of precipitation appears to inhibit the advantage of Cube orientation {001}100 notably after annealing at 350 ℃ for 15 min.Finally,it comes out to be a random distributed orientation by full recry stallization.

文摘High-purity silver(Ag)is extensively utilized in electronics,aerospace,and other advanced industries due to its excellent thermal conductivity,electrical conductivity,and machinability.However,the prohibitive material cost poses substantial challenges for optimizing thermal processing parameters through repetitive experimental trials.In this work,hot compression experiments on high-purity silver were conducted using a Gleeble-3800 thermal simulator.The high temperature deformation behaviors,dynamic recovery(DRV)and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)of high-purity silver were studied by constructing an Arrhenius constitutive equation and developing thermal processing maps.The results show that plastic instability of high-purity silver occurs at high strain rates and the optimized hot processing parameters are the strain rate below 0.001 s^(−1) and the temperature of 340−400℃.Microstructural observations exhibit that DRV prefers to occur at lower deformation temperatures(e.g.,250℃).This is attributed to the low stacking fault energy of high-purity silver,which facilitates the decomposition of dislocations into partial dislocations and promotes high-density dislocation accumulation.Furthermore,DRX in high-purity silver becomes increasingly pronounced with increasing deformation temperature and reaches saturation at 350℃.

文摘The constitutive relationships of Al-Mg-Si alloy deformed at various strain rates,temperatures and strains were studied.The microstructure evolution was quantitatively characterized and analyzed,including recrystallization fraction,grain sizes,local misorientation,geometrically necessary dislocation and stored strain energy during hot deformation and subsequent heat treatment.The results show that the dislocation density and energy storage are linear with ln Z during hot deformation and subsequent heat treatment,indicating continuous recrystallization occurring in both processes.With higher ln Z,the dislocation density declines more sharply during subsequent heat treatment.When ln Z is less than 28,dislocation density becomes more stable with less reduction during subsequent heat treatment after hot deformation.As these dislocations distribute along low angle grain boundaries,the subgrain has good stability during subsequent heat treatment.The main recrystallization mechanism during hot deformation is continuous dynamic recrystallization,accompanied by geometric dynamic recrystallization at higher ln Z.

文摘The microstructure evolution of 7A85 aluminum alloy at the conditions of strain rate(0.001−1 s^(−1))and deformation temperature(250−450°C)was studied by optical microscopy(OM)and electron back scattering diffraction(EBSD).Based on the K-M dislocation density model,a two-stage K-M dislocation density model of 7A85 aluminum alloy was established.The results reveal that dynamic recovery(DRV)and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)are the main mechanisms of microstructure evolution during thermal deformation of 7A85 aluminum alloy.350−400°C is the transformation zone from dynamic recovery to dynamic recrystallization.At low temperature(≤350°C),DRV is the main mechanism,while DRX mostly occurs at high temperature(≥400°C).At this point,the sensitivity of microstructure evolution to temperature is relatively high.As the temperature increased,the average misorientation angle(θˉ_(c))increased significantly,ranging from 0.93°to 7.13°.Meanwhile,the f_(LAGBs) decreased with the highest decrease of 24%.

文摘The dynamic recrystallization and carbides precipitation of the Cr-Co-Mo-Ni bearing steel were investigated by hot compression tests performed at temperatures ranging from 850 ℃to 1080 ℃ with strain rate of 1-20 s-1. The activation energy（Q） for the tested steel is calculated to be around 682.99 k J/mol at a deformation strain of 0.6. Microstructural analysis by SEM shows that the dynamic recrystallization（DRX） behavior is dependent sensitively on the deformation strain, temperature and strain rate, while an exponential relationship between DRX grain size and Z parameter is obtained from the computational formula. Moreover, the M6C-type carbides（〈1 μm） act as the main prohibitor of grain coarsening, and the polynomial regression relationship between them is worked out. With electron backscatter diffraction（EBSD） observation, DRX is the main nucleation mechanism responsible for the formation of new grains during hot compression. In conclusion, the interaction between DRX affected by hot deformation parameters and carbides precipitation determines the ultimate grain size refinement.

文摘The hot deformation behavior of Al-6.2Zn-0.70Mg-0.30Mn-0.17 Zr alloy and its microstructural evolution were investigated by isothermal compression test in the deformation temperature range between 623 and 773 K and the strain rate range between 0.01 and 20 s^(-1).The results show that the flow stress decreased with decreasing strain rate and increasing deformation temperature.At low deformation temperature(≤673 K) and high strain rate(≥1 s^(-1)),the main flow softening was caused by dynamic recovery;conversely,at higher deformation temperature and lower strain rate,the main flow softening was caused by dynamic recrystallization.Moreover,the slipping mechanism transformed from dislocation glide to grain boundary sliding with increasing the deformation temperature and decreasing the strain rate.According to TEM observation,numerous Al_3Zr particles precipitated in matrix,which could effectively inhibit the dynamic recrystallization of the alloy.Based on the processing map,the optimum processing conditions for experimental alloy were in deformation temperature range from 730 K to 773 K and strain rate range from 0.033 s^(-1) to 0.18 s^(-1) with the maximum efficiency of 39%.
文摘Microstructures and mechanical properties of （Mg-2.0%Ce-0.7%Zn-0.7%Zr） alloy were studied. The results of scanning electron microscopy show that Mg12Ce phase mainly distributes at the grain boundaries. The fine (Mg12Ce) phase can apparently elevate recrystallization temperature by preventing the grain boundary migration. No dynamic recrystallization occurs during the hot-extrusion. The mechanical properties of as extruded specimens are （σb=278.5 MPa,） δ=12.0%, while those of the specimens annealed at 250 ℃ for 100 h are σb=（272.6 MPa,） δ=（11.3%,） which indicate that the alloy has good mechanical properties at room temperature.

文摘In order to present the microstructures of dynamic recrystallization(DRX) in different deformation zones of hot extruded NiTi shape memory alloy(SMA) pipe coupling,a simulation approach combining finite element method(FEM) with cellular automaton(CA) was developed and the relationship between the macroscopic field variables and the microscopic internal variables was established.The results show that there exists a great distinction among the microstructures in different zones of pipe coupling because deformation histories of these regions are diverse.Large plastic deformation may result in fine recrystallized grains,whereas the recrystallized grains may grow very substantially if there is a rigid translation during the deformation,even if the final plastic strain is very large.As a consequence,the deformation history has a significant influence on the evolution path of the DRX as well as the final microstructures of the DRX,including the morphology,the mean grain size and the recrystallization fraction.
文摘ZK60-xcerium alloys were studied,where x mass fraction is 0, 0.52%, 0.94%, 1.51% and 1.98%, respectively. Influence of Ce contents and heat-treatment on microstructure and tensile properties was analyzed. The results show that cast ZK60 alloy containing no Ce has coarse crystal grains, and lots of segregation aggregates around the grain-boundary. However, the alloys containing Ce have refined grains, and grain-boundaries are purified at the same time. Obvious dynamic recrystallization occurs in tested alloys after hot-extrusion. Tensile strength heightens with the increase of Ce content, and grows higher after aging at 150℃ for 024 h （T5 treatment）. Comparing tensile properties of investigated alloys in different states, it can be concluded that synthetical properties of the alloy with 1.51% Ce addition is the best of all. In extruded state, σb and δ of this alloy are 318.6 MPa and 14.4%, respectively. After aging for 24 h ,σb is 338.6 MPa and δ is 15.6%.
