Popis: In this study, a multiscale model is developed through secondary development (UMAT and UEXTERNALDB) in Abaqus with the objective of simulating the thermal deformation process with dynamic recrystallization behavior. The model couples the finite element method (FEM) with the multiphase field model (MPFM), thereby establishing bidirectional coupling between macroscopic mechanical behavior and microstructural evolution. A comparison between the single-element hot compression simulation and experimental results demonstrates that the model accurately simulates both the macroscopic mechanical behavior and microstructural evolution during the thermal deformation process, thereby exhibiting high precision. Simulations of the reduction pretreatment (RP) process under different reduction amounts and billet surface temperatures demonstrate that increasing the reduction amount and billet surface temperature significantly enhances both plastic deformation and the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization in the billet core. This results in the closure of core voids and the refinement of the core microstructure, thereby providing valuable guidance for the development of optimal reduction pretreatment (RP) processes.
