The hot compression test of the lean duplex stainless steel 2101 was conducted on THEMOMASTER-Z thermal mechanical simulator at a temperature range of 950~1150C, and strain rate range of 0.130s-1 with true strain 0.8. Surface cracks, which is at angle approximately of 45° to the compression axis are pone to appear at higher strain rates and lower temperatures. In order to predict the surface cracks of the material, processing map based on dynamic material modeling (DMM) and specific plastic work approaches were established by using tested data. The evaluation of the surface cracks of the deformed samples, in the case of the present study, did not reach any firm relationship between processing maps, which based on DMM and surface cracks. While, the predicted results using specific plastic work approach matched well with the surface cracks.
