The strain hardening effect and dynamic recovery behavior of a Ni-based superalloy are studied by isothermal compressive tests. A new unified dislocation-density based constitutive model is developed to characterize the strain hardening effect and dynamic recovery behavior of the studied superalloy. In the developed constitutive model, some material parameters (yield stress, strain hardening coefficient, and dynamic recovery coefficient) are assumed as functions of initial grain size, deformation temperature, and strain rate. An iterative algorithm is designed to predict the high-temperature deformation behaviors under time-variant hot working conditions. The hot deformation parameters and material parameters can be updated in each strain increment. Comparisons between the experimental and calculated flow stresses indicate that the developed constitutive model can accurately describe the high-temperature deformation behavior of the studied superalloy. Furthermore, the developed constitutive model is also successfully used for analyzing time-variant hot working processes.

complex deformation mechanisms (strain hardening, dynamic recovery, dynamic recrystallization, etc.) further affect the final mechanical properties of materials.46 The constitutive models are often used to analyze the hightemperature deformation behavior and predict flow stress.1 Therefore, the establishment of accurate constitutive models to predict the high-temperature deformation behavior is very important for optimizing hot forming parameters. In recent years, considerable constitutive models have been developed to describe the high-temperature deformation behavior of metals or alloys. Lin and Chen1 presented a critical review on some experimental findings and constitutive models for metals or alloys under hot working. The constitutive models were mainly composed
