A mathematical model for computing the distribution of loads and thickness in the width direction of a strip rolled in fourhigh cold-rolling mills

Mechanics of roll edge contact in cold rolling of thin strip

“…x' x y(x) m j i 1 2 can be approximatively treated as a semi-infinite body [21,22]. The influence function for the flattening between the work roll and strip was derived according to a semiinfinite body model [20].…”

Study of work roll edge contact in asymmetrical rolling by modified influence function method

“…5, the projected arc of contact between the work roll and strip, l d , is not a constant and changes along the width of strip that can be deduced by the Hitchcock model. Because the maximum value of l d is far less than the work roll diameter, so the work roll can be approximately treated as a semi-infinite body [22][23][24]. The flattening between the work roll and strip can be calculated by…”

Modelling of work roll edge contact in thin strip rolling

Because the maximum value of l d is far less than the diameter of the work roll, the work roll can be approximately treated as a semi-infinite body [17][18][19].
