Abstract
The rigid-plastic finite element method for a slightly compressible material is applied to steady and non-steady state strip rolling. Solutions for some technical problems using a finite element analysis for rolling process are given. Stress and strain distributions in steady state plane-strain strip rolling under the condition of a constant coefficient of friction are calculated for work-hardening and non-hardening materials. The calculated distribution of roll pressure exhibits a peak at the entry which does not appear in the analysis by the slab method. Non-steady state deformation of the front and tail ends is also analysed. The calculated end shapes are in good agreement with the experimental ones for aluminium strip.
