sandwich sheet rolling process is investigated using an analytical method (slab method) and a numerical method (finite element method). the horizontal stress distribution in the layers, the rolling pressure along the contact interface and the neutral point between the roll and the sheet are investigated. then the affects of the parameters such as the friction between the sheet and the roll, she...

The rolling process is an excellent method for processing new high performance polymers. Skew rolling, as a highly accurate and highly efficient rolling technology, has been commonly used to enhance mechanical properties and productivity. However, the complexity of the mechanics in the skew rolling process of polymers is a significant challenge for manufacturers and researchers. In this work, m...

X. D. Shu, J. Wei, C. Liu: College of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics, Ningbo University, China The paper presents a new method of one closed cross wedge rolling (CWR) based wedge block to achieve near net forming of CWR shafts. The modeling is performed by using the Finite Element Method (FEM) software DEFORM-3D. The metal flow rule of the shaft is clarified by analyzing the strain and di...

Understanding the exceptional Lie groups as the symmetry groups of simpler objects is a longstanding program in mathematics. Here, we explore one famous realization of the smallest exceptional Lie group, G2. Its Lie algebra g2 acts locally as the symmetries of a ball rolling on a larger ball, but only when the ratio of radii is 1:3. Using the split octonions, we devise a similar, but more globa...

Study of various transportation indicators could be an appropriate criterion in evaluating the performance of the existing railways throughout the globe. This study was carried out to investigate the performance of rolling stock of Iranian railway using productivity analysis. In order to solve the problems, some solutions were provided by productivity management cycle steps. At the first step, ...

∗ Previous address: Department of Automation, Tianjin University, P. R. China Abstract In steel rolling industry, control of hot metal rolling process plays an important role in assuring high product quality and safe process operation. Although many advanced looper control technologies for finishing rolling process have emerged, looperless interstand tension control of roughing rolling mills re...

This work is devoted to the study of possibility recycling bar scrap stainless metals using radial-shear rolling. In course studies on deformation in form pins made 12X18N9T austenitic steel a rolling mill, resulting was obtained microstructure two different types: periphery an equiaxed ultrafine-grained structure with grain size 0.4–0.6 microns formed; axial zone anoriented, banded texture obt...

Leukocyte recruitment during inflammation is achieved through a multistep paradigm that includes margination, selectin-mediated rolling, beta 2 integrin-mediated firm adhesion, emigration, and migration into the site of inflammation. We have used the mouse cremaster muscle as a model of trauma- and cytokine-induced inflammation to study the possible role of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM...
