Abstract
A modified 2-D CA model has been developed to simulate dynamic recrystallization behavior of Magnesium (Mg) alloy during hot deformation processing. Based on the fact that Mg has an HCP crystal structure with six-fold symmetry, the model employs the hexagonal CA lattice. The initial microstructure with prescribed grain size was generated by a normal grain growth algorithm. The DRX model consists of dislocation density evolution model, DRX nucleation model and recrystallization grain growth model. DRX grain morphology and size, flow curve were simulated by the present model. The calculated results were compared with the available experimental findings in AZ31 Mg alloy, the predictions show very good agreement with the experimental results.
