The Modeling of the Flow Behavior Below and Above the Two-Phase Region for Two Newly Developed Meta-Stable beta Titanium Alloys

Isothermal hot compression tests of two promising new titanium alloys (Ti-10 V-1Fe-3Al and Ti-10 V-2Cr-3Al) are performed using a TA DIL805D deformation dilatometer at temperatures in and above the two-phase α + β region (730–880 °C) at strain rates ranging from 10⁻³ to 10⁻¹ s⁻¹. Results show that the flow...

Application of physical and numerical simulations for interpretation of peripheral coarse grain structure during hot extrusion of AA7020 aluminum alloy

In this research, hot compression test is used to simulate the metallurgical phenomena occurring in the peripheral part of AA7020 aluminum alloy extrudates during hot extrusion and leading to the formation of the peripheral coarse grain (PCG) structure. The temperature profiles at a tracking point in the peripheral part of extrudates are...
