Abstract
The compressive deformation behavior of 95CrMo steel, one of the worldwide used hollow steels, was investigated on a Gleeble-3500 thermo-simulation machine within temperature range of 1073-1323 K and strain rate range of 0.1-10 s−1. Considering the influence of work-hardening, dynamic recovery and dynamic recrystallization, a new constitutive model for high-temperature flow stress was established in this paper. The calculated values predicted by the new constitutive model lie fairly close to the experimental values with a correlation coefficient (R) of generally above 0.99 and an average absolute relative error of 3.00%, proving a good predictability of the new constitutive model. Also, a modified Sellars-Tegart-Garofalo model (STG model) was introduced to verify the precision of the new constitutive model. Compared to the modified STG model, the new constitutive model has a higher accuracy, which implies it is a reliable tool for predicting flow stress at high temperatures not only under equilibrium state, but also under transient deformation conditions. Besides, the new constitutive model was proved still viable in the initial stage of plastic deformation where plastic strain is lower than 0.05.
