A New Constitutive Model for the Plastic Flow of Metals at Elevated Temperatures
Source abstract
Abstract
A new constitutive model based on the combination of the Garofalo and Hensel-Spittel equations has been used to describe the plastic flow behavior of an AA6005 aluminum alloy tested in torsion. The analysis of the experimental data by the constitutive model resulted in an excellent description of the flow curves. The model equation was then rewritten to explicitly include the Arrhenius term describing the temperature dependence of plastic deformation. The calculation indicated that the activation energy for hot working slowly decreased with increasing strain, leading to thermally activated flow softening. The combined use of the new equation and torsion testing led to the development of a constitutive model which can be safely adopted in a computer code to simulate forging or extrusion.
