In this study, optimum processing condition of AZ31 Mg alloy was investigated utilizing processing map and constitutive equation considering microstructure evolution (dynamic recrystallization) during hot-working. A series of mechanical tests were conducted at various temperatures and strain rates to construct a processing map and to formulate the recrystallization kinetics and grain size relation. Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) was observed to occur revealing maximum intensity at a domain of $250^{\circ}C$ and 1/s. The effect of DRX kinetics on microstructure evolution was implemented in a commercial FEM code followed by remapping of the state variables. The volume fraction and grain size of deformed part were predicted using a modified FEM code and compared with those of actual hot forged one. A good agreement was observed between the experimental results and predicted ones.

The high temperature deformation behavior of SCM 440 can be characterized by the hot torsion test in the temperature ranges of $900^{\circ}C$~$1100^{\circ}C$ and strain rate ranges of 0.05/sec~5/sec. The aim of this paper is to establish the quantitative equation of the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) as a function of processing variables, such as strain rate ($\varepsilon$), temperature (T), and strain ('$\varepsilon$). During hot deformation, the evolution of microstructure could be analyzed from work hardening rate ($\theta$). For the exact prediction of dynamic softening mechanism the critical strain ($\varepsilon_c$), the strain for maximum softening rate ($\varepsilon^*$ and Avrami' exponent (m') were quantitatively expressed by dimensionless parameter, Z/A, respectively. The transformation-effective strain-temperature curve for DRX could be composed. It was found that the calculated results were agreed with the experimental data for the steel at any deformation conditions.

Adiabatic shear bands have been observed in the serrated chip during high strain rate metal cutting process of medium carbon steel and titanium alloy. The recent microscopic observations have shown that dynamic recrystallization occurs in the narrow adiabatic shear bands. However the conventional flow stress models such as the Zerilli-Armstrong model and the Johnson-Cook model, in general, do not predict the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) in the shear bands and the thermal softening effects accompanied by DRX. In the present study, a strain hardening and thermal softening model is proposed to predict the adiabatic shear localized chip formation. The finite element analysis (FEA) with this proposed flow stress model shows that the temperature of the shear band during cutting process rises above 0.5T$\sub$m/. The simulation shows that temperature rises to initiate dynamic recrystallization, dynamic recrystallization lowers the flow stress, and that adiabatic shear localized band and the serrated chip are formed. FEA is also used to predict and compare chip formations of two flow stress models in orthogonal metal cutting with AISI 1045. The predictions of the FEA agreed well with the experimental measurements.

P/M coppers are subjected to the isothermal compression tests at the strain rate ranging from 0.01 to 10.0 $s^{-1}$ and the temperature from 200 to $800^{\circ}C$. The processing map reveals the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) domain in the following temperature and strain rate ranges: $600-800^{\circ}C$ and 0.01-10.0 $s^{-1}$, respectively. In the domain, the region at temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ and strain rate of $10^{-2}s^{-1}$ shows peak efficiency. From the kinetic analysis, the apparent activation energy in the DRX domain is 190.67 kJ/mol and it suggests that lattice self-diffusion is the rate controlling mechanism.

The high temperature deformation behavior of $SiC_p/Al-Si$ composites and Al-Si matrix was studied by hot torsion test in a range of temperature from $270^{\circ}C$ to $520^{\circ}C$ and at strain rate range of $1.2{\times}10_{-3}~2.16{\times}10_{-1}/sec$. The hot restoration mechanisms for both matrix and composites were found to be dynamic recrystallization(DRX) from the investigation of flow curves and microstructural evolutions. The Si precipitates and SiC particles promoted DRX, and the peak strain$({\varepsilon}_p)$ of the composites was smaller than that of the matrix. Flow stresses of $SiC_p/Al-Si$ composites were found to be generally higher than the matrix, but the difference was quite small at higher temperature due to the decrease of capability of load transfer by SiC particles. With increasing temperature, failure strain of matrix and composites are inclined to increase, the increasing value of failure strain for the $SiC_p/Al-Si$ composites was small compared to that of matrix. The stress dependence of both materials on strain rate() and temperature(T) was examined by hyperbolic sine law, $\.{\varepsilon}=A_1[sinh({\alpha}{\cdot}{\sigma})]_n$exp(-Q/RT)

The hot deformation characteristics of pure molybdenum was investigated in the temperature range of $600{\sim}1200^{\circ}C$ and strain rate range of $0.01{\sim}10.0/s$ using a Gleeble test machine. The power dissipation map for hot working was developed on the basis of the Dynamic Materials Model. According to the map, dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurs in the temperature range of $1000{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$ and the strain rate range of $0.01{\sim}10.0/s$, which are the optimum conditions for hot working of this material. The average grain size after DRX is $5{\mu}m$. The material undergoes flow instabilities at temperatures of $900{\sim}1200^{\circ}C$ and the strain rates of $0.01{\sim}10.0/s$, as calculated by the continuum instability criterion.

A hot forming process is required for Mg alloys to enhance the formability and plastic workability due to the insufficient formability at room temperature. Mg alloy undergoes dynamic recrystallization (DRX) during the hot working process, which is a restoration or softening mechanism that reduces the dislocation density and releases the accumulated energy to facilitate plastic deformation. The flow stress curve shows three stages of complicated strain hardening and softening phenomena. As the strain increases, the stress also increases due to work hardening, and it abruptly decreases work softening by dynamic recrystallization. It then maintains a steady-state region due to the equilibrium between the work hardening and softening. In this paper, an efficient optimization process is proposed for the material model of the dynamic recrystallization to improve the accuracy of the flow curve. A total of 18 variables of the constitutive equation of AZ80 alloy were systematically optimized at an elevated forming temperature($300^{\circ}C$) with various strain rates(0.001, 0.1, 1, 10/sec). The proposed method was validated by applying it to the constitutive equation of AZ61 alloy.

마그네슘 합금은 결정구조가 HCP구조로 슬립면이 제한되어있어 상온에서의 가공이 용이하지 않다. 따라서 최근 마그네슘 합금의 미세 조직을 제어하기 위해 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 구조용 재료 및 기능성 재료로 기대되는 마그네슘 합금(AZ3l)을 이용하여 주조로부터 압출·압연 과정으로의 연속적인 판재 성형공정을 실행하였다. 모든 공정에 대한 전형적인 기계적 특성을 평가하기 위하여 각 공정에서 재료의 인장실험을 실시하였으며 각 공정 후에 향상된 기계적 특성들을 규명하기 위하여 경도시험을 실시하였다 또한 각 공정에서의 대표적인 미세 조직을 관찰하여 결정립 미세화에 따른 기계적 물성의 향상을 확인하였다. 주조재, 압출판재, 압연판재의 인장강도는 189.3㎫, 257.9㎫ 그리고 234.㎫로 증가하였다가 다소 감소하지만, 연신율은 상대적으로 16.26%, 24.99% 그리고 27.16%의 50%에 가까운 주목할만한 증가를 나타낸다. 인장실험의 실험결과로부터 얻어진 가공경화지수로부터 대상 재료인 마그네슘 합금(AZ3l)에 대하여 DRX의 거동을 예측할 수 있었으며, 압출후 압연 판재의 경우 연한 재결정 조직으로 인하여 연신율의 대폭적인 증가를 확인 할 수 있었다.

The high temperature deformation behaviour of 15vol% SiCp/A16061 composites has been studied in the temperature range of 300-50$0^{\circ}C$ and the strain rate range of 0.1-3.0/sec by torsion test. On he basis of the flow stress data the strain rate sensitivity(m) of the material is evaluated and used for calculating the deformation efficiency(η) [η=2m/(m+1)] A domain of dynamic recrystallization(DRX) could be identified in these maps by using the deformation efficiency. The characteristicvs of these results has been investigated with the help of determining the region of optimum hot working condition.
