Abstract

Vertical-horizontal (V-H) rolling is an important process during width reduction in the roughing stand of hot strip mill. A simulation of steady-state V-H rolling was carried out by the full three-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method (3D RPFEM). To consider the shear work rate and cope with a singular point, an extremely thin array of elements was attached before the entry of the roll. The slab shape, the spread, the separating force, and the rolling torque calculated were in good agreement with the experimental values.
