The mechanical properties of IN718 are directly related to microstructure such as grain size and the hardening mechanisms, which are effective during thermomechanical processing and subsequent heat treatment. In this study a set of unified viscoplastic constitutive equations were determined for IN718 from experimental data of hot forging conditions. Techniques were developed to analyse the reliability and consistency of the experimental data derived from different previous publications. In addition to viscoplastic flow of the material, the determined material model can be used to predict the evolution of dislocations, recrystallisation and grain size occurring during thermomechanical processing.
