Hot Deformation Behavior and Constitutive Model of the nickel-base alloy Nimonic Alloy as–forged are investigated by hot compression tests in the ranges of strain rate (0.001-1s−1) and temperature 1323-1423K, at intervals 50K. During the process of compression deformation, with the increase of true strain, the flow stress first increases rapidly to the peak value. Then, the flow stress decreases with the increase of true strain. Flow curves show dynamic recrystallization occurs at low strain rate (0.001-0.1 s−1) and temperature (1323-1423K). The softening mechanism at high strain rate (1 s−1) is dynamic recovery. According to the values of the ture stress and strain, the material constants of constitutive model are calculated and Arrhenius-type equation is given.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
