The governing equations and the finite element model for the coupled thermo-mechanical multi-pass vertical-horizontal rolling process of a zircaloy strip are established. Considering the temperature-dependent and strain rate-dependent constitutive relation of zircaloy, the numerical simulation of the three-pass V-H rolling process is realized by the coupled thermo-mechanical dynamic explicit finite element method. The computational results such as the plastic deformation, the size variations and the temperature variations in three passes are discussed. The research results indicate that edging by vertical roller benefits improving the sizes of the strip and the temperature variations are rather obvious during the three-pass hot rolling process. The research provides experience and foundations for the FEM simulation of the hot rolling process of composite slabs for nuclear fuel elements.

In the rolling process, deviation is the phenomenon that the strap width direction's centerline deviates from rolling system setting centerline,serious deviation will cause product quality drop and rolling equipment fault. This paper has established the finite element model to the hot tandem rolling aluminum strap, analyzed the strap’s deviation rule under four kinds of incentives,obtained the neural network predictive model and the control policy of the tail deviation.The result to analyze a set of fact deviation data shows this method may control tail deviation in preconcerted permission range.

Abstract The three-dimensional transient thermal problem of work rolls in the entire hot rolling process has been formulated. It includes the time-varying boundary conditions specified at the roll surface taking the schedule of both rolling and idling cycles into consideration. The corresponding finite element equations are derived and solved by the Runge-Kutta-Verner method. The finite element solutions indicate that the temperature variations in the circumferential direction are overwhelming. Case studies unveil the thermal characteristics of the work rolls in various kinds of mill operations. Numerical results are presented and compared with Guo’s analytical solutions.

Cold rolled thin strip has received a great deal of attention through technological and theoretical progress in the rolling process, as well as from researchers who have focused on some essential parameters of strip such as its shape and profile. This paper describes the development of a 3-D finite element model of the shape of thin strip during cold rolling to simulate the cold rolling of WCS (work roll crossing and shifting) in asymmetric rolling. This finite element model considers the asymmetrical rolling parameters such as variations in the diameters of the rolls and the crossing angle as the work roll shifts on the strip during cold rolling. The shape and profile of the strip are discussed in the asymmetrical and symmetrical rolling conditions, while the total rolling force and distribution of stress are discussed in the case where the roll cross angle and axial shifting roll changes. The results can then be used to control the shape and profile of thin strip during rolling.

Abstract Through taking the cold rolling process as the research object, the three-dimensional finite element model of the strip rolling process is established by using ANSYS/LS-DYNA software. The simulation results of the finite element model have a good fit with the actual production data. The rolling process is dynamically simulated, and the distribution curves of important rolling parameters such as equivalent stress, control efficiency coefficient, transverse rolling pressure, lateral thickness and work roll deflection is obtained. The research results of this paper have strong practicability for the process control of cold strip rolling mill. The research results have certain guiding significance for the development and optimization of the rolling control system.

The aim of the paper is to obtain a unified finite element model of a complex process, which makes it possible to obtain visual information related to the influence of the welding process parameters on the results of the process of wave strain hardening of the weld material. Modeling of sequentially executed technological processes of different physical nature - welding and hardening, makes it possible to obtain more general and objective visual information about the process as a whole. Modeling in the Ansys software package is performed in stages, with the output of an earlier stage of modeling acting as the input data of the subsequent stage. At the first stage, the problem of visualizing the process of forming a weld is solved with the possibility of calculating temperature fields, stress and strain fields during heating and cooling of the welded workpiece. At the second stage, the calculated data is imported into the finite element model of processing welds with a deformation wave. A finite element model makes it possible to build microhardness maps for selected (dangerous) sections and visually monitor the change in stresses and strains in welded workpieces, depending on the technological modes of hardening by a deformation wave. The obtained visual information allows for a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the result of a complex process, which contributes to an increase in the bearing capacity and performance of the product as a whole.
