“…Specialists in the field of metal forming point out several problems associated with sheet rolling of hard-to-deform steels and alloys. One of the main problems is edge cracking of thin sheets during rolling due to the inherent low plasticity of such materials [2,3,4,5,7,9,12,13,15,16,17,18,19]. Among the factors influencing the plasticity of the material, two groups are distinguished: 1) the properties of the material itself: chemical composition, microstructure, type of crystal lattice, number of microstructure phases, structural and chemical heterogeneity, etc.…”
