Hot workability relates to the ability of a metal or alloy to be deformed under conditions of high temperature (> O.6Tm, where Tm is the melting temperature in degrees Kelvin) and relatively high strain rates (10 -1 to 10 3 S -1 ). The two characteristics that govern hot workability are strength and ductility. In a previous review, the relationship between strength and structure under hot-working conditions was examined with particular reference to deformation to large strains leading to essentially steady-state conditions.
