Abstract

A comparative study of the mechanical behavior and microstructural evolution in a cast coarse-grained 7475 Al alloy during uniaxial compression and multidirectional forging at 490°C and 10–4 s–1 was performed. It was shown that high-temperature deformation of the alloy led to grain refinement accompanied by strain softening. At similar processing conditions, the deformation path provided by multidirectional forging was found to be more favorable for grain refinement and strain softening than that of uniaxial compression.
