Abstract

When alloys are strained to a certain limit under the plastic deformation, ductile fracture occurs. Whether the required deformation can be put into effect before fracture appears has become a serious concern. A combination of compression tests, ductile fracture criteria as well as finite element simulation (FEM) were employed in this study to establish the fracture initiation prediction model of Ti-47Al-2Nb-2Cr alloy. To obtain the critical fracture strain, a technique was proposed to calculate the data for deformed cylindrical samples through isothermal compression tests in the temperature range between 1223 and 1423 K with strain rates ranging from 0.001 to 1 s−1. Five commonly used ductile fracture criteria were compared by FE simulation of compressing tests. It was found that the Brozzo criterion was found to be suitable and accordingly a failure criterion, considering temperature and strain ratio was established. Hot working parameters (critical fracture value and critical strain) in deformation could be obtained through the finite element simulation, revealing that this newly established failure criterion could accurately predict cracking initiation in compressing deformation of Ti-47Al-2Nb-2Cr alloy ingot.
