The experimental results show that the flow stress data are negatively correlated with temperature for temperature softening, and the strain rates sensitivity of this composite increases with elevating temperature. Based on the experimental data, Johnson-Cook, modified Johnson-Cook and Arrhenius constitutive models were established. The accuracy of these three constitutive models was analyzed and compared. The results show that the values predicted by Johnson-Cook model could not agree well with the experimental values. The prediction accuracy of Arrhenius model is higher than that of Johnson-Cook model but lower than that of the Modified Johnson-Cook model.展开更多

An accurate prediction of flow behavior of TC4 tubes considering the couple effects of temperature,strain rate and strain is critical for understanding the deformation behavior of metals and optimizing the processing parameters in warm rotary draw bending of TC4 tubes. In this study, isothermal compression tests of TC4 tube alloy were performed from 573 to 873 K with an interval of 100 K and strain rates of 0.001, 0.010 and0.100 s^(-1). The prediction of flow behavior was done using two constitutive models, namely modified Arrhenius model and artificial neural network(ANN) model. The predictions of these constitutive models were compared using statistical measures like correlation coefficient(R), average absolute relative error(AARE) and its variation with the deformation parameters(temperature, strain rate and strain). Analysis of statistical measures reveals that the two models show high predicted accuracy in terms of R and AARE. Comparatively speaking, the ANN model presents higher predicted accuracy than the modified Arrhenius model. In addition, the predicted accuracy of ANN model presents high stability at the whole deformation parameter ranges, whereas the predictability of the modified Arrhenius model has some fluctuation at different deformation conditions. It presents higher predicted accuracy at temperatures of 573-773 K, strain rates of 0.010-0.100 s^(-1)and strain of 0.04-0.32, while low accuracy at temperature of 873 K, strain rates of 0.001 s^(-1)and strain of 0.36-0.48.Thus, the application of modified Arrhenius model is limited by its relatively low predicted accuracy at some deformation conditions, while the ANN model presents very high predicted accuracy at all deformation conditions,which can be used to study the compression behavior of TC4 tube at the temperature range of 573-873 K and the strain rate of 0.001-0.100 s^(-1). It can provide guideline for the design of processing parameters in warm rotary draw bending of LDTW TC4 tubes.展开更多
