Hot torsion testing<br />
• Under hot-working condition<br />
(T > 0.6T m , εεεε up to <strong>10</strong> 3 s -1 ), torsion test<br />
is often used to obtain data on the flow<br />
properties and fracture.<br />

• In hot working condition (m>>n),<br />
the maximum shear stress is<br />
expressed as follows;<br />
M T τ a ( 3 + m + n)<br />
3<br />
Eq.<strong>10</strong><br />
=<br />

Where<br />
m is strain rate sensitivity<br />
n is the strain hardening exponent.<br />
