Accurate determination of the materials’ strength and ductility in the semi-solid state at near-solidus temperatures is essential, but it remains a challenging task. This study aimed to develop a new method to determine the stress-strain evolution in the semi-solid state of aluminum alloys within the Gleeble 3800 unit. Stress evolution was determined by the newly developed “L-gauge” method, which converted the displacement of the “restrained” jaw, measured using an L-gauge, into the force. This method gives the possibility to determine the flow stress more accurately, especially for the very low stress rang (1–10 MPa) in the semi-solid state at near-solidus temperatures. The digital image correlation technique implemented in the Gleeble unit allowed effective measurement of the heterogeneous strain fields evolving within the specimen under tensile loading. Therefore, the stress-strain curves measured in the semi-solid state help to better understand the alloy’s susceptibility to hot tearing. The results of an AA6111 alloy under different liquid fractions (2.8% at 535 °C and 5.8% at 571 °C) were demonstrated. The reliable stress-strain data and heterogenous strain distribution are beneficial to develop the thermomechanical models and hot-tearing criteria. |
