Abstract: Isothermal compression tests of BSTMUF601 super-alloy in the temperature range of 950 ̋C–1200 ̋C and at the strain rates of 0.2 s ́1, 5 s ́1, 10 s ́1 were performed on a Gleeble-1500D thermo-mechanical simulator. Based on the hyperbolic sine function, the unified constitutive equations and hot processing maps during the hot deformation process were established. The flow stress predicted by...

The deep cryogenic treatment is a complementary operation that is done on a variety of tool steels aimed at improving their abrasion resistance and hardness. In the case of the H13 hot-work steel, which is widely used at high temperatures as a hot-deformation tool, we need to determine the efficiency of subzero treatment on it at the working temperature. In this regard, this paper is focu...

In engineering materials, microstructural evolution during hot-working critically determines the properties of the finished part. Intermetallic TiAl alloys are no exception and numerous attempts have been made to improve their performance by subjecting them to harmonized hot-working steps. In the current work a novel in-situ diffraction technique along with conventional microscopic methods were...

The hot deformation behavior of a typical martensitic stainless steel containing 2.1% Ni was investigated by means of the compression test in the strain rate range of 0.001-1 s-1 and temperature range of 950-1150 °C. The flow behavior of the steel was evaluated using the flow stress curves and flow softening map and by microstructural investigation. Taking into account of the strain effect on t...

An original multiscale friction analysis is developed to characterize the interfacial phenomena during hot forging contact conditions in manufacture of wheels for railway industry. Hot upsetting sliding tests and roll-on-disc are performed reproduce tribological at meso micro-scale. Crushed embedded oxides found be present on sample's surfaces. Stick-slip occur due accumulation crushed oxides. ...
