Abstract

A material mechanical model provides basic data for numerical simulation and technological optimization during the forming process. In this paper, the flow behavior of the hot compressive deformation 0.3 wt.-% Si non-orientation electrical steel were investigated by thermal simulation tests, and a constitutive model was built based on a new modeling method. The thermal simulation tests conducted on a Gleeble 1500 thermo-mechanical simulator over a range of temperatures from 750 to 1050 °C and strain rates from 0.1 to 10 s−1. To predict the hot deformation process of the silicon steel, a constitutive model based on the multiple regression method was developed. Prediction results showed that the proposed model can track deformational behavior accurately. The model was applied to finite element (FE) simulation, and the FE calculation results matched the industry production data satisfactorily.
