Thermal-Mechanical Modelling of the Flat Rolling Process (Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 1991)Paperback - Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 1991, 21 December 2011

Thermal-mechanical modelling of hot, warm and cold rolling is presented. The dependence of the accuracy and consistency of the predictions on the boundary conditions - heat transfer and friction - and on the initial conditions - The resistance of the material to deformation - is discussed.
