Abstract
AZ31 magnesium alloy is considered as a promising alloy in various applications and industries. Furthermore, to design a proper hot working process (rolling, forging and extrusion), the assessment of hot working behaviour of the alloy is necessary. Accordingly, the hot deformation behaviour of AZ31 alloy was studied through hot compression testing method This was carried out in a wide range of temperature (523K to 783K) and strain rates. The obtained true stress-true strain curves and final microstructures were examined and a partial melting was realized at 740K. It was concluded that the presence of liquid did change the deformation mechanisms thereby affecting the flow behaviour.

Abstract
The aim of the present study is the prediction of critical conditions (including critical strain and flow stress)
for the initiation of dynamic recrystallization during thermo-mechanical processing of plain carbon steels. For this
propose, torsion tests were conducted at different temperature (1050, 1100 and 1150˚C) and strain rates (0.002, 0.02
and 0.2/s). All flow curves showed a peak stress indicating that dynamic recrystallization occurs during hot
deformation. The critical stress and strain were then determined based on change in strain hardening rate as a function
of flow stress. Finally, the effect of deformation conditions on these parameters was analyzed.

Abstract
The evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties of a magnesium cast alloy (AZ31) processed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at two different temperatures were investigated. The as-cast alloy with an average grain size of 360 was significantly refined to about 5 after four ECAP passes at 543 K. Grain refinement was achieved through dynamic recrystallization (DRX) during the ECAP process in which the formation of necklace-type structure and bulging of original grain boundaries would be the main mechanisms. ECAP processing at lower temperature resulted in finer recrystallized grains and also a more homogenous microstructure. The mechanical behavior was investigated at room temperature by tensile tests. The obtained results showed that the ECAP processing can basically improve both strength and ductility of the cast alloy. However, the lower working temperature led to higher yield and ultimate strength of the alloy.

Abstract
Dynamic Recrystallization (DRX) is one of the likely mechanisms for fine-graining in metals and alloys. The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) phenomena occurs in different thermo-mechanical processing (TMP) conditions for various metallic materials. DRX depends on various materials and thermo-mechanical parameters such as temperature, strain rate, strain, stress and initial microstructure. in the present study, the restoration mechanism of the 17-7PH stainless steel has been investigated using a hot compression test under different conditions of thermo-mechanical treatment. The microstructural characteristics and the behavior of the hot deformation of the under study steel are investigated using flow curves and microstructure images obtained from optical microscopy. The results show that the maximum and steady state stresses are significantly affected by the strain rate and the deformation temperature. So that, the flow stress increases with decrease in the deformation temperature and increase in the strain rate. Microstructural studies confirm the occurrence of DRX as a restoration mechanism in the microstructure for the two phases of austenite and ferrite.

Abstract
Mechanical properties of metals are substantially dependent on the microstructure, which can be controlled by thermo-mechanical parameters such as the temperature, strain and strain rate. Hence, understanding the microstructural evolution of alloys during the hot deformation is crucial for engineering the metal forming processes. The main objective of this work is to present an overview of Cellular Automaton (CA) modeling for predicting the microstructure of alloys during the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) phenomenon. In this review paper, first, overall descriptions about the DRX phenomenon and CA modeling were presented. Then, the CA modeling procedure was compared with similar methods. Meanwhile, related studies in the field of the DRX simulation by using the CA modeling were evaluated. Four main stages of the model were analyzed in terms of the “nucleation”, “growth”, “topological changes” and “texture evaluation” steps. Most important limitations including the calibration sensitivity, limitations in continuous DRX modeling, ignoring microstructural effects on the deformation behavior, limited applications and database as well as repeated results were discussed and then objective suggestions for the further development were provided. Finally, future prospects in CA modeling of DRX were presented in the last section.
