Summarizing the results of the investigations performed at IMSP RAS, the principles of producing a uniform ultrafine-grained structure in large-section billets, based on the technique of multiple isothermal forging, have been formulated. These principles imply a uniform introduction of plastic strain energy into large-section billets, minimization of contact friction between the die-set and the billets, and deformation processing in the temperature and strain-rate conditions that are most favourable for development of dynamic recrystallization.
