  The aim of this research is to study the effect of fine grain structure on the mechanical and superplastic properties of cold worked SP700 alloy. Thickness reductions of 20%, 40%, and 60%. were applied during cold rolling. Then the specimens were annealed at 700°C, 750° More

  The aim of this research is to study the effect of fine grain structure on the mechanical and superplastic properties of cold worked SP700 alloy. Thickness reductions of 20%, 40%, and 60%. were applied during cold rolling. Then the specimens were annealed at 700°C, 750°C, and 800°C for 40 minutes. The tensile test was applied at 25, 700oC, 750°C, and 800°C with strain rates of 0.01s-1, 0.005s-1 and 0.001s-1. The SEM and OM were used to analyze the specimens' microstructures. The alloy cold rolled to 40% reduction and annealed at 700°C exhibited a maximum elongation of 1380% at a stress level of 30 MPa and a strain rate of 0.005 s-1 at 700°C. Microstructural evlauation showed that during the superplastic test, dynamic recrystallization took place. The strain rate sensitivity varied in the range of 0.32 to 0.46. Fundamental equations were also used to determine the mechanism of superplasticity. The activation energy is obtained as 385 kJ.mol-1. Results validated that the Rachinger sliding is the main superplastic mechanism in the SP700 alloy. Manuscript profile

  The age-hardening curves of hardness measurements obtained for Ni-Span C 902 superalloy under different amounts of cold work, aging temperatures and times showed leveling and pronounced oscillations, indicating instability and reflecting a competition between the effect of sub-structure coarsening and the effect of solute drag and precipitation hardening. An artificial neural network (ANN) was used to model the nonlinear relationship between the parameters of the aging process and the corresponding hardness measurements. The predicted values of the ANN are in accordance with the experimental data. Results showed that the non-deformed and 50 pct cold rolled alloy exhibited a maximum hardness at a tempering parameter of 22 and 21, respectively. Manuscript profile
