Abstract
An analytical model for large-cylinder asymmetrical rolling is proposed based on an improved slab method, which can predict the rolling force more quickly. In this method, uneven normal and shear stresses acting on the vertical side are supposed. In the solution, the upper and lower contact lengths are different, and the roll gap is divided into four slabs. Moreover, the effects of the rolling parameters such as roll speed ratio, roll radius, exit thickness, and radius of cylinder on the rolling force and cross-shear zone ratio are investigated. The cross-shear zone ratio, which means the shear effect, is a key parameter in reducing rolling force and microstructure refinement. This method is conducted with the experimental and finite element verification, and good agreement has been found. It should be noted that the calculation result can be obtained rapidly and easily by this proposed model. Therefore, the present model is suitable for online application.
