TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of plastic deformation of magnesium alloy, and particularly relates to a method for predicting tensile yield strength of magnesium alloy extruded rods in different orientations. BACKGROUND
[0002] Magnesium alloy is the lightest metal structural material, and has excellent properties such as small density, high specific strength and specific stiffness, good thermal conductivity and strong anti-vibration and shock absorption capacity, and is widely used in rail transit and electronic information fields. However, the magnesium alloy has a close-packed hexagonal structure, and the axial ratio is 1.623. In the process of deformation, the basal slip is very easy to start, so that the magnesium alloy is prone to form basal texture. The formation of texture leads to strong mechanical property anisotropy of the magnesium alloy along different directions, which has an important influence on the processing and forming of the magnesium alloy.
[0003] The magnesium alloy extruded rod generally has basal filament texture, and the basal plane of the grain is parallel to the extrusion direction of the rod. When the magnesium alloy extruded rod is loaded in different directions, the deformation mechanisms are quite different. For example, when the magnesium alloy extruded rod is stretched along the extrusion direction, the main deformation mechanism is cylindrical slip, and when the magnesium alloy extruded rod is stretched along the transverse direction, the main deformation mechanisms are basal slip and tensile twinning. Because these deformation mechanisms have different critical shear stresses and different abilities to coordinate plastic deformation, the magnesium alloy extruded rod exhibits different yield behaviors and work hardening behaviors when loaded in different orientations, that is, the magnesium alloy extruded rod has strong anisotropy.
[0004] The anisotropy can lead to uneven plastic deformation of the magnesium alloy rod during processing, and is prone to cause cracking of the workpiece, which is not conducive to the plastic forming of the magnesium alloy, and is one of the key problems limiting the popularization and application of the magnesium alloy. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the anisotropy of the magnesium alloy rod and propose a method for predicting the yield strength of the magnesium alloy extruded rod in different orientations, so as to accurately predict the yield strength of the magnesium alloy rod in different orientations. SUMMARY

[0029] The technical solutions of the present application will be further described below in combination with the drawings and examples.
[0030] The yield strength of the AZ31 magnesium alloy extruded bar is predicted.
[0031] The uniaxial tensile properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy extruded rod along different orientations were tested, the tensile yield strengths of different orientation samples were obtained according to the tensile stress-strain curves, the coordinates of the tensile yield strengths of each orientation sample in the yield coordinate space were calculated, and the tensile yield strengths were plotted in the coordinate system, the distribution equation model of the yield strength in the yield coordinate space was obtained by fitting the distribution of the tensile yield strengths in the yield strength coordinate space: y T = ax T +b.
[0032] The tensile properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy extruded rod along the TD direction and the ED direction with strong basal plane texture were tested, as shown in Figure 1 , (a) is a schematic diagram of loading along different orientations of the rod, the angle between the loading direction (LD) and the transverse direction (TD) of the rod is θ; (b) is the 0002 pole figure of the AZ31 magnesium alloy extruded plate.
[0033] The true stress-strain curves were obtained, as shown in Figure 2 , (a) is the true stress-strain curve when tensile along the 0° and 90° directions relative to the transverse direction of the AZ31 magnesium alloy rod.
[0034] The yield strengths when tensile along the TD direction and the ED direction are 53.3 MPa and 188.1 MPa, respectively.
[0035] According to the orientation relationship between the loading direction and the transverse direction of the rod, the coordinate values of the TD direction and the ED direction yield strength in the yield coordinate space were calculated as (53.3, 0) and (0, 188.1), respectively.
[0036] The calculated coordinate values were brought into the yield strength distribution equation model y T = ax T +b, the values of the constants a and b in the equation were-3.53 and 188.1, respectively, and the distribution equation of the yield strength in the yield coordinate space was y T =-3.53x T +188.1.
[0037] According to the coordinate space distribution equation, the yield strength when loaded along any orientation was calculated:
[0038] As shown in Figure 2 , (b) is the distribution curve of the predicted yield strength in the yield coordinate space.
[0039] According to the coordinate space distribution equation, the angle between the loading direction and the transverse direction of the rod was calculated:
[0040]
[0041] For any x value, the corresponding yield strength σT and the angle θ between the loading direction and the transverse direction of the bar, so according to σ T and the corresponding relationship between θ, the yield strength with the change of loading direction is drawn, as shown in Figure 3
[0042] According to the yield strength curve with the change of θ angle, the yield strength of AZ31 magnesium alloy extruded bar can be predicted, as shown in Figure 3 The yield strength measured by experiment is very close to the predicted value, which verifies the accuracy of the method.
