A. Kawałek, Czestochowa University of Technology, Czestochowa, Poland The paper presents the results of asymmetrical plate rolling in the finishing rolling stand of a 3600 mill. The investigation was carried out for S690Ql steel sheets. Tests were conducted for two types of the asymmetric rolling process. In the first case, the asymmetry of the process was introduced by varying the speed of the...

Many vehicle systems contain rolling elements which exhibit unstable rolling motion, called shimmying, which may lead to disastrous results. The classical shimmying wheel is a simple model which captures the essential dynamics of such systems. Fortunately, this model possesses a particular geometric structure which provides a simple means to design a globally stabilizing controller. However, th...

Vertical rolling is an important technique used to control the width of continuous casting slabs in hot-rolling field. Accurate prediction vertical force a core point maintaining rolling-mill equipment. Owing limitation algorithm use, accuracy most models based on energy method can only reach more than 10%. Therefore, it challenging optimize rolling-force model improve accuracy. An innovative a...

Starting from the well-known fact that the rolling movement always has a lower friction compared to sliding friction, the authors have conceived and realized a pivoting movement joint on a "layer of balls" with "compensation space", placed between the acetabular cup and the femoral head. This technical solution allows free self-directed migration of the balls, depending on the resistance oppose...

This paper presents a mathematical model to investigate the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a high speed rotor-bearing system due to defects of rolling elements. Two defects have been considered for the study, one defect as off-sized rolling elements and other defect as rolling element waviness. In the formulation, the contacts between rolling elements and inner/outer races are considered as nonl...

L-selectin is a leukocyte lectin that mediates leukocyte capture and rolling in the vasculature. The cytoplasmic domain of L-selectin has been shown to regulate leukocyte rolling. In this study, the regulatory mechanisms by which this domain controls L-selectin adhesiveness were investigated. We report that an L-selectin mutant generated by truncation of the COOH-terminal 11 residues of L-selec...

Static stiffness is an important indicator of the performance of a rolling guide, having direct influence on the stiffness and precision of computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools. After preloading the rolling guide, an outward elastic deformation is generated at the carriage skirt, which leads to a decrease in the static stiffness of the rolling guide. Therefore, there would be rel...

Cell rolling is a physiological phenomenon, which allows leukocytes to attach to activated vascular endothelium and reach sites of inflammation. A novel approach to model cell rolling is presented in this thesis. The model incorporates all the aspects known to be important to rolling in a semi-analytical framework making it computationally efficient. Bond kinetics have been used to define micro...

Deep cold rolling (DCR) and low plasticity burnishing (LPB) process are cold working processes, which easily produce a smooth and work-hardened surface by plastic deformation of surface irregularities. The present study focuses on the surface roughness and surface hardness aspects of AISI 4140 work material, using fractional factorial design of experiments. The assessment of the surface integri...

A pair of objects on an inclined plane are connected together by a string. The upper object is then connected to a fixed post via a spring. The situation is first analysed as a classroom exercise in using free-body diagrams to solve Newton’s second law for a system of objects upon which many different kinds of force are acting (string tension, spring force, gravity, normal force, and friction)....
