Abstract:
The flow curve is constructed by flow stress data obtained from compression test conducted at different temperature and strain rate. Accurate flow stress model is crucial for investigating magnesium alloys deformation behaviour at the elevated temperatures. An analytical method, which reflects temperature, strain and strain rate effect by introducing temperature-compensated strain rate (Zener-Hollomon Parameter), is proposed in this study. This model has been applied on the experimental data and predicted flow stress curve match well with those measurements.
