The capability of a phenomenological, a physical-based, and a restoration-based model in flow behavior description has been evaluated comparatively to determine the optimum high-temperature deformation condition for a boron-alloyed steel. For this purpose, the hot compression tests are performed over wide ranges of strain rate and temperature. The modified Zerilli-Armstrong model is found to be simple and handy for flow modeling since it employs less material constants compared to the other models. The strain-compensated Arrhenius constitutive equation is accurate and can be used to predict the flow behavior of similar alloys over a wide range of deformation temperatures. The restoration-based constitutive analysis is the most accurate approach for flow modeling because it takes different stages of deformation into account separately. Finally yet importantly, the experimental data are used to develop the efficiency maps and the optimum processing domains are determined.
