The final hot strip profile is a superposition of the roll initial crown, the roll bending and flattening crown, the roll wearing crown and the roll thermal crown. In this research, linear regression models are proposed to predict the roll force, the roll wearing crown and the roll thermal crown using experimental data provided by Mobarake Steel Complex (MSC). The Euler-Bernoulli beam theory ba...

Abstract Based on the three-dimensional field of molten pool and twin-roll strip casting experiments, this work verified cracking mechanism by establishing mathematical model rolling experiments. The results showed that due to instability thermophysical inconsistency kiss curve height, newly solidified will undergo incompatible deformation through rolling. stress concentration appear around lar...

In the face of global competition, the requirement for dimensional accuracy, mechanical properties and surface properties has become a major challenge on aluminum manufacturing industries. Conventional rolling force formulas, however, provide not more than reasonably exact approximations. The mathematical modeling of the hot rolling process has long been recognized to be a desirable approach to...

We study the stability of a barotropic vortex strip on a rotating sphere, as a simple model of jet streams. The flow is approximated by a piecewise-continuous vorticity distribution by zonal bands of uniform vorticity. The linear stability analysis shows that the vortex strip becomes stable as the strip widens or the rotation speed increases. When the vorticity constants in the upper and the lo...

Scale defects are common surface defects in hot steel rolling. The reasons for such defects are not straightforward. With data mining methods, the multidimensional dependencies between process variables and product composition can be discovered. For this research, a high-dimensional data set from Rautaruukki Oyj, Raahe, Finland was gathered. The data contained both averaged values and process v...

In this article, a robust steering control for the last phase of the rolling process in a hot strip mill is proposed. This phase, called tail end phase, may be modelled as a linear switched system. The switchings make the system unstable and the task of the tail end steering control consists in guaranteeing the safety of the industrial plant. The controller has to take into account the physical...

The tandem cold rolling process is continuous production, and it desired to achieve a stable operation process, the incoming materials need be welded in length direction before rolling. Usually head tail of material have thickness dimension positive deviation, there are two alignments front rear strip, so that different weld zone profiles can formed. In this research, we built an FEA (finite el...
