A constitutive model for the flow stress behavior and microstructure evolution in aluminum alloys under hot working conditions - with application to AA6099
A constitutive model for aluminum alloys under hot working conditions is proposed. The elastic-viscoplastic model is implemented in a finite strain continuum mechanical frame- work. The model accounts for the interplay between dynamic recovery and recrystalliza tion during hot working of aluminum alloys and central aspects of microstructure evolution such as grain/subgrain size and dislocation denA constitutive model for aluminum alloys under hot working conditions is proposed.
