Lead bars of various height-to-width ratio have been rolled down in a model rolling mill to reductions of as great as 60 percent between rolls designated as smooth, partially rough, and rough. The results of experiments to determine the amount of spread which each bar undergoes are presented nondimensionally, and these are compared with the spread formulas of Wusatowski, Hill, and Sparling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
