Abstract:

An important issue for realistic simulation of the cold rolling process is the consideration of the tools as elastic structures. The material flow is strongly influenced by the elastic deformation of the tools. Due to the enormous increase of the computer performance, this influence can be considered more and more realistically. This paper shows mainly the elastic behaviour of the working roll and discusses the influence on the geometry of the rolled strip.
