To study the hot-compressive deformation behaviour of the TC4 alloy, isothermal compression tests were conducted at temperatures ranging from 700°C to 900°C, at 100°C intervals, and at strain rates ranging from 0.1 s -1 to 10.0 s -1 . The experimental results showed that the flow stress of the TC4 alloy increases quickly with an increase in the strain, reaches a peak value, and then decreases to a steady value. The results clearly indicated that dynamic recovery and recrystallization occur during the hot-compression tests. The flow stress of the TC4 alloy increases with a decrease in the deformation temperature and an increase in the strain rate. On the basis of the experimental results, a revised constitutive model describing the relationship among the flow stress, strain rate, and forming temperature of the TC4 alloy at elevated temperature was established. The flow-stress values predicted by the constitutive model agreed well with the experimental results.Avtorji so izvajali preizkuse vro~e izotermalne deformacije pod tlakom na zlitini TC4 v temperaturnem obmo~ju med 700°C in 900°C, v intervalih po 100°C in hitrostih deformacije od 0,1 s -1 do 10,0 s -1 . Rezultati eksperimentov so pokazali, da z nara{~ajo~o stopnjo deformacije hitro nara{~a napetost te~enja zlitine TC4. Ko dose`e vrh, za~ne padati in se ustali pri neki konstantni vrednosti. Rezultati so jasno pokazali, da med preizkusi vro~e deformacije pod tlakom pride do dinami~ne poprave in rekristalizacije. Napetost te~enja zlitine TC4 nara{~a z zni`evanjem temperature deformacije in nara{~a s hitrostjo deformacije. Na osnovi rezultatov so avtorji revidirali in potrdili konstitutivni model, ki opisuje zvezo med napetostjo te~enja, hitrostjo in temperaturo deformacije zlitine TC4. Numeri~no napovedana napetost te~enja zlitine se dobro ujema z rezultati eksperimentov.
