Analysis of the hot deformation of ZK60 magnesium alloy
Hot deformation of cast-homogenized and extruded (in both the extrusion and transverse directions) ZK60 magnesium alloy was conducted using the Gleeble® 3500 thermal-mechanical simulation testing system. A new approach to model the high temperature constitutive behavior of the alloy was done using t...

Hot deformation of cast-homogenized and extruded (in both the extrusion and transverse directions) ZK60 magnesium alloy was conducted using the Gleeble® 3500 thermal-mechanical simulation testing system.

For this approach, the deformation conditions were divided into regimes of low and high temperature and strain rate (four regimes). Constitutive model development was conducted in each regime and the material parameters (P) were evaluated as strain, strain rate and temperature-dependent variables; P(ε, ε˙, T).
