Abstract: The effect of roll deformation on separating forces in cold strip rolling is studied. The deformed roll shape is determined by a two dimensional finite element routine. The results are then ...

Abstract: Two mathematical models proposed by Avitzur and valid for axially symmetrical square extrusion are tested for their ability to predict the maximum power required in single as well as multiple ...

Abstract: Hot rolling tests were performed on low carbon steel strips with the objective of determining the coefficient of friction as a function of the process variables. The growth of the scale prior ...
