Abstract

Processing maps are developed using the Dynamic Materials Model (DMM) and instability criterion, which help in choosing optimum process parameters for hot-working of materials. Certain high-level expertise is required to interpret and extract the information on instability regimes to be avoided during processing. In recent years, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models have been developed to predict flow stress by using the input vector; namely, temperature, strain rate and strain. In this study, using the available Cu-Zn alloy data, ANN model has been developed to classify the hot-working process parameters, such as temperature, strain rate and flow stress for instability regime, directly from the corrected flow stress data without applying the DMM. This model uses 10 compositions of Cu-Zn system, ranging from 3% Zn to 51% Zn. The developed ANN model has been able to leam the nonlinear classifier, which separates unstable region from the stable region in the Cu-Zn alloy system with zinc content less than 40%.
