The influence of Si on the high temperature deformation behavior of ultra low carbon austenite was studied in the range of temperature and strain rate from 1000 to 1100ºC and 0.001 and 0.1 s-1, respectively. The flow curves of the steels exhibit the classic softening due to dynamic recrystallization. The characteristic pairs of stress/strain values (zero, critical, peak, saturation and steady state) were determined by the analysis of the work hardening curves. These values were analyzed by applying first the classical Garofalo approach. Once the apparent stress exponents and activation energies were determined, being in the vicinity of 5 and above 270 kJ/mol, respectively, a modified hyperbolic-sine equation was used. The flow curves were characterized by work hardening, dynamic recovery and recrystallization terms at any processing conditions, showing a direct relationship with the Si content of the steels. Finally all the flow curves of studied steels were discussed and modeled as a function of the processing parameters and Si content.
