A New Constitutive Model Describing the Plastic Flow of Metals: Application to the AA6082 Aluminum Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new constitutive relationship based on the combination of the Garofalo and Hensel-Spittel equations has been developed and successfully used to model the plastic flow of a AA6082 aluminum alloy. Two regimes of temperature and strain rate were identified: the constitutive analysis suggested that in the low strain rate/high temperature regime, deformation was controlled by viscous glide of dislocations in atmospheres of Mg solute atoms, while in the high strain rate/ low temperature regime, deformation was controlled by climb.
