Unified constitutive modeling for hot tensile behavior of TC4 alloy with and without diffusion bonding joint by Zhongman Cai, Yong Li, Yanqiang Xu, Jiarui Chen, Xiaoxing Li, Guanglu Ma, Dongsheng Li

“…Straight grain boundaries, fine dynamic recrystallization (DRX) grains and weak joints formed by the DB process, which lead to lower stress and fracture strain than those of base metal (BM) specimens. Based on the experimental results, a new unified constitutive model considering the weld-dependent fracture coefficients and internal variables is developed, which can accurately predict the hot deformation and fracture behavior of TC4 with and without DB, describing the influence behavior of DB interface on hot deformation, as well as the evolutions of internal variables, including dislocation density, reserve fraction, DRX fraction and damage. …”
