Abstract
Dynamic ferrite transformation is a vital microstructure evolution mechanism for carbon alloy steels and an essential technology for manufacturing high-performance steel materials. In practice, carbon steel hot working processes are usually carried out at various temperatures, involving the evolutionary behavior of the single-phase austenite and the ferrite dynamic transformation process. Few models can simultaneously predict the microstructural state and deformation resistance in the single-phase austenitic interval and the dynamic ferrite transformation interval. The deformation mechanisms involve work-hardening, dynamic recovery, and dynamic recrystallization of austenite and ferrite phases, as well as the dynamic transformation of austenite to ferrite and coordinated deformation between the two phases. Therefore, this paper extends the application range of the model based on the viscoplastic unified constitutive model by considering the above deformation mechanisms. The constitutive model proposed in this paper applies to both the single-phase austenite interval and the dynamic ferrite transformation interval. Moreover, it can accurately predict carbon alloy steel's microstructure state and deformation resistance in different intervals. This paper can help to construct a hot deformation constitutive model in a wide range of deformation temperature intervals of steel materials.
