    Effect of Cryogenic SPD with Various Strain Conditions on Development of Nano and Bimodal Structures in Al Alloys

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Mohebbi, Mohammad Sadegh (Author) ; Akbarzadeh, Abbas (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Amount of strain has been always considered as the primary parameter affecting the microstructural and strength evolutions during Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD). However, these evolutions unavoidably saturate in large strains under deformation with constant conditions, i.e. constant deformation temperature, strain rate and strain path. In this study, effects of these factors on the microstructural and flow behavior of Ultra-Fine Grain (UFG) aluminum (AA 1050 and AA 5052) processed by Accumulative Roll-Bonding (ARB) are investigated. The flow behavior and its time-dependent aspect are evaluated up to large strains by Plane Strain Compression (PSC) and Stress Relaxation (SR) tests. ... 

    Experimental and Theoretical Analysis of Plastic Deformation of Metals under Impact Loading Using Taylor Impact Test

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Khayyer Dastjerdi Toroghi, Ahmad (Author) ; Naghdabadi, Reza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In most of the engineering applications, the mechanical behavior of materials in high strain rate deformations differs from their behavior in quasi-static deformations. In some engineering problems like impact loading on structures, metal forming and explosive forming, the range of strain rate is about . Taylor impact test is one of the experiments used for characterizing the dynamic behavior of materials in high strain rate deformations. In the Taylor impact test a rigid cylindrical projectile is impacted normally onto a hard and massive surface (anvil), the projectile deforms by mushrooming at the impact end. With plastic wave propagation analysis, the plastic deformation of projectile is... 

    Modeling the Mechanical Properties of Aluminum Series 1xxx after Severe Plastic Deformation in Corrugation Die

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Hosseini, Ehsan (Author) ; Kazeminezhad, Mohsen (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Nowadays, modeling the behavior of materials during forming processes is so important. The role of most of them is to investigate and predict the evolutions of microstructure and mechanical properties of materials during plastic deformation. Previous researches have demonstrated that the best parameter to investigate these evolutions is the dislocation density of materials. In this study, first, the dislocation-based models, which investigate the material parameters evolutions during plastic deformation, were investigated and it was revealed that among all presented models, only the two internal variables models can investigate the behavior of materials during severe plastic deformation. ...

    Abstract
    The hot ductility of Fe-29Ni-17Co alloy was studied in both cast and wrought conditions by hot tensile tests over temperature range of 900-1250°C and at strain rates of 0.001-1s-1. Over the studied temperature range, the wrought alloy represented higher elongation and reduction in area as compared to the cast alloy. Dynamic recrystallization was found responsible for the higher hot ductility of the wrought alloy and the improvement of hot ductility of the cast alloy at high temperatures. At temperature range of 1000-1150°C the wrought alloy exhibited a hot ductility drop while a similar trough was not observed in case of the cast alloy. It was also found that at temperatures of 1150-1250°C... 

    Determination of flow stress under hot deformation conditions

    , Article Materials Science and Engineering A ; Volume 552 , 2012 , Pages 566-568 ; 09215093 (ISSN) Solhjoo, S ; Sharif University of Technology
    2012
    Abstract
    In order to predict the flow stress curves up to peak under the hot working conditions two crucially modified models are presented. The modification is done by considering the effects of both temperature and strain rate. Besides, the ability of prediction at very low strains is added to them. Furthermore a new mathematical model has been developed to estimate the stress-strain curves beyond the peak via a secant hyperbolic function. The predicted results are found to be in accord with empirical values

    2009
    Abstract
    A mathematical model has been developed to predict stress-strain curve up to the peak stress at hot deformation. This model is based on the linear estimation of work hardening rate-stress curve up to the peak stress. This equation is expressed in terms of peak stress, peak strain. In addition, in order to find the value of peak strain, Zenner-Hollomon parameter is modified. The predicted results are found to be in accord with the experimental flow stress curves which can be used to predict the required deformation forces in hot deformation processes. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

    , Article Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance ; Volume 19, Issue 9 , 2010 , Pages 1264-1267 ; 10599495 (ISSN) Sheikh, H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    In this study, the plastic instabilities associated with the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) and their effects on the mechanical properties and the fracture surfaces have been investigated for AA 5083. Tensile tests were performed at various temperatures and strain rates in order to do so. Then, serrated and smooth yielding domains were determined in Ln ε̇-1/T diagram. The stress-strain curves related to the serrated domain show the values of flow stress decreases by increasing the strain rate at a constant temperature. In addition, the plot of critical strain versus imposed strain rate indicates an inverse manner at very low strain rates. It is confirmed that the type of PLC bands alters the...

    , Article Comprehensive Materials Processing ; Vol. 3 , 2014 , pp. 377-396 ; ISBN: 9780080965338 Serajzadeh, S ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Knowledge of process parameters during and after hot rolling is a significant requirement in order to produce a material with the desired microstructures and mechanical properties. In continuous hot rolling mills, different stages may exist, including water descaling, rolling stands, interstand sections, and run-out table. In each of these sections, various thermal and/or mechanical conditions are applied on the rolling metal that would affect material response in successive stages. In other words, an integrated model should be employed in hot rolling operations to evaluate metal behavior and microstructural events at the same time. Therefore, the thermal-mechanical response as well as...

    Abstract
    Temperature and velocity distributions during hot strip rolling of a low-alloy steel are determined using a finite element method together with a neural network model. The finite element method is utilized to solve the governing equations of heat conduction and plastic deformation; at the same time a neural network model is employed for assessing flow stress of the metal being deformed. In this way, the effects of temperature, strain, and strain rate on flow stress could be included in the finite element analysis. In order to examine validity of the mathematical model, laboratory hot rolling experiments are carried out where the surface temperature and roll force are recorded. Comparison...

    A study has been made to determine the influence of the carbon content on the kinetics of dynamic recrystallization and recovery as well as flow stress during hot deformation of carbon steels. For this purpose, single hit hot compression experiments at various strain rates and temperatures on two grades of carbon steel together with the Avrami-type kinetics equation and Bergstrom approach have been utilized. The results show that the apparent hot deformation activation energy decreases with increasing carbon content and this phenomenon results in a faster dynamic recrystallization and recovery and a lower flow stress at high temperatures and/or low strain rates in high carbon steels, while...

    Abstract
    The dynamic and static softening phenomena in Al-6Mg alloy were studied through interrupted two-stage hot compression test performed isothermally at 480°C and strain rate range of 0.001-0.1 s-1. The interruptions of 29 and 90 s were considered when the true strain reached 0.5. It was concluded that the effect of static softening on the flow stress was not highlighted by extending the interruption at a constant strain rate. Also, it was exhibited that softening rate highly enhanced with the strain rate decrement at a constant time. Moreover, the static and dynamic recrystallization was revealed as the dominant softening mechanisms at low and high strain rates, respectively

    Elsevier Ltd  2020
    Abstract
    The hardening behavior of heat treatable alloys during deformation is attributed to three mechanisms of forest dislocations, solid solution and precipitation hardening which hinder the motion of dislocations and increase the density of statistically stored dislocation. In this paper, a model for the flow stress of a 2024 heat treatable aluminum alloy during plastic deformation is developed combining the superposition of these three hardening mechanisms. This model was then implemented into the finite element model in order to evaluate the evolution of the flow stress of 2024 aluminum alloy during multi-directional forging (MDF). Subsequently, an equation is developed for evaluating the...

    , Article Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance ; Volume 22, Issue 3 , March , 2013 , Pages 700-705 ; 10599495 (ISSN) Mostafaei, M. A ; Kazeminezhad, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    2013
    Abstract
    A comprehensive analysis on flow stress of a wrought Al-Mg alloy is performed to examine the effect of strain. For this study, hot compression tests were carried at different temperatures and strain rates. Corrections of friction and adiabatic heating effects lead to the true stress-true strain curves in the form of dynamic recovery, which reach to a steady-state condition. After correction, constitutive analysis at a constant strain is carried out using hyperbolic-sine equation. The effect of strain on each constitutive parameter is studied to derive a strain-dependent constitutive equation based on hyperbolic-sine equation. Some of constitutive parameters reach to the constant values at...

    2011
    Abstract
    The hot workability of a wrought 49.8 Ni-50.2 Ti (at pct) alloy was assessed using the hot compression tests in temperature range of 700-1000°C, strain rate of 0.001-1s-1, and the total strain of 0.7. The constitutive equations of Arrhenius-type hyperbolic-sine function was used to describe the flow stress as a function of strain rate and temperature. The preferable regions for hot workability of the alloy were achieved at Z (Zener-Holloman parameter) values of about 109-1013 corresponding to the peak efficiency of 20-30% in the processing map. However, a narrow area in the processing map including the deformation temperature of 1000°C and strain rate of 1s-1 is inconsistent with the related...

    Abstract
    In this work, an optimum multilayer perceptron neural network is developed to model the correlation between hot working parameters (temperature, strain rate and strain) and flow stress of IN625 alloy. Three variations of standard back propagation algorithm (Broyden, Fletcher, Goldfarb and Shanno quasi-Newton, Levenberg-Marquardt and Bayesian) are applied to train the model. The results show that, in this case, the best performance, minimum error and shortest converging time are achieved by the Levenberg-Marquardt training algorithm. Comparing the predicted values and the experimental values reveals that a well trained network is capable of accurately calculating the flow stress of the alloy...

    , Article Materials Science and Engineering A ; Vol. 593 , 2014 , pp. 136-144 ; ISSN: 09215093 Mohebbi, M. S ; Akbarzadeh, A ; Yoon, Y. O ; Kim, S. K ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Plane strain compression (PSC) test was used to study the flow stress of ultrafine grained commercially pure aluminum at large strains. AA 1050 sheets were processed by various Accumulative Roll-Bonding (ARB) cycles up to 10 cycles as the initial specimens for the test. An approach was developed to measure the coefficient of friction and to suppress its effect on the results. It is shown that as a result of having an anisotropy parameter (R-value) of less than one, Von-Mises tensile strengths are significantly higher than PSC strengths. Comparing these strengths, the R-value as an average anisotropy parameter of rolling and transverse directions is estimated for the ARBed sheets, where it is...
