| Summary: | Isothermal uniaxial compressions of a Ti-6Al-4V alloy were carried out in the temperature range of 800–1050 °C and strain rate range of 0.001–1 s−1. The effects of friction between the specimen and anvils as well as the increase in temperature caused by the high strain rate deformation were considered, and flow curves were corrected as a result. Constitutive models were discussed based on the corrected flow curves. The correlation coefficient and average absolute relative error for the strain compensated Arrhenius-type constitutive model are 0.986 and 9.168%, respectively, while the values for a modified Johnson-Cook constitutive model are 0.924 and 22.673%, respectively. Therefore, the strain compensated Arrhenius-type constitutive model has a better prediction capability than a modified Johnson-Cook constitutive model.
