Abstract:Based on thermal-mechanical simulation, the hot deformation behaviour of as-cast metastable β Ti-5553 titanium alloy under the conditions of high-temperature and high-strain-rate was investigated thoroughly. With the combination of various characterization approaches, the detailed microstructure evolution process of the novel dynamic recrystallization (DRX) mechanism and the effects of deformation parameters on DRX were revealed and analyzed. The results show that the flow softening of the alloy under the conditions of high-temperature and high-strain-rate are dominated by the synergy of dynamic recrystallization and deformation instability. The nucleation site, grain size and fraction of the recrystallized grain show great sensitivity to the deformation parameters. The disclosed DRX process is revealed to be controlled by the coupling mechanism of widely-accepted discontinuous (DDRX) and continuous (CDRX) mechanisms, containing strain localization induced nucleation and sub-grain rotation induced transformation.
