Numerical simulation of superplastic forming and its microstructure evolution
A computer software for simulating superplastic forming process and its microstructure evolution during SPF is introduced in this paper. The software can be used to simulate not only the superplastic forming process but also the transformation process from the general plastic deformation to superplastic deformation due to dynamic recrystallization and grain refinement. The constitutive relation, the routine structure of the software and some calculated examples are presented in this paper.
