TY - JOUR AU - Allazadeh, Mohammad Reza PY - 2020/11/25 Y2 - 2024/03/29 TI - Computing Strain Rate Sensitivity of Aluminium Alloy 1050 JF - International Scientific Survey Journal JA - ISSJ VL - 3 IS - 2 SE - Articles DO - UR - https://www.syniutajournals.com/index.php/ISSJ/article/view/177 SP - AB - <div><span lang="EN-GB">The strain rate sensitivity of commercial aluminium alloy 1050 (or AA1050) was calculated using uniaxial tensile test results. The experimental data were collected from hot uniaxial tensile test carried out according to </span><span lang="EN-GB">E-2448 standard at different strain rates and testing temperatures. The results were analysed to approximate the optimum value of strain rate sensitivity (m-value) for commercial AA1050 tempering </span>H14 with no additional heat treatment or microstructure altering. The strain rate sensitivity was determined by implementing the uniaxial tensile test data in creep law and by plotting the strain rate-flow stress curve. The formulation of the problem was demonstrated for Bailey-Norton law time hardening and strain hardening governing equations.</div><div>The results presented low strain rate sensitivity of AA1050-H14 at 100 <sup>o</sup>C, 200 <sup>o</sup>C, 300 <sup>o</sup>C, and 500 <sup>o</sup>C for the selected pure plastic strains before necking zone. The maximum m-value for uniaxial tensile tests was found to be&nbsp;<span lang="EN-GB">about the probe strain of 4% </span><span lang="EN-GB">at 300&nbsp;<sup>o</sup>C forming temperature under loading with the strain rate of </span><span lang="EN-GB">0.0005 s<sup>-1</sup></span><span lang="EN-GB">.</span></div> ER -
