This study examines the fatigue and anisotropy behaviour of cold rolled AA1200 aluminium alloy for light weight automotive connecting rod application. Aluminium (Al) 1200 ingots were melted at temperature of 680 0C (after one hour of heating) cast in sand mould and cast samples homogenized for 6 hrs at 480 0C. The cold rolling process was carried out after homogenisation for 10, 20, 30, 40 and ...

Cold rolling process of a major transformation in the form of sheet metal and a wide range of steel products are produced in this way. Elastic deformation during cold rolling working rollers and the inevitable increase in the rolling force. In this study, the effect of elastic deformation during cold rolling mill rollers working on the reciprocating back and forth in tandem with the presence of...

Interactive graphics systems often need techniques that allow the user to rotate graphical objects freely in three-dimensional space using commonly-available two-dimensional input devices such as a mouse. Achieving this goal is hampered by the fact that there is no single natural mapping from the two parameters of the input device to the three-parameter space of orientations. Here we i n troduc...

The nonlocal means (NL-Means) method that has been widely used in the field of image processing in recent years effectively overcomes the limitations of the neighborhood filter and eliminates the artifact and edge problems caused by the traditional image denoising methods. Although NL-Means is very popular in the field of 2D image signal processing, it has not received enough attention in the f...

A. Kawałek, Czestochowa University of Technology, Czestochowa, Poland The paper presents the results of asymmetrical plate rolling in the finishing rolling stand of a 3600 mill. The investigation was carried out for S690Ql steel sheets. Tests were conducted for two types of the asymmetric rolling process. In the first case, the asymmetry of the process was introduced by varying the speed of the...

in this study, the effects cold rolling and annealing parameters during thermomechanical processing of the aisi 201ln stainless steel were investigated. the cast samples were homogenized, hot-rolled and solution-annealed to acquire a suitable microstructure for the subsequent thermomechanical treatment. unidirectional and transverse multi-pass cold rolling at 25, 0 and -15 °c was carried out to...

In this work1 we introduce a complementaritybased rolling friction model to characterize dissipative phenomena at the interface between moving parts. Since the formulation is based on differential inclusions, the model fits well in the context of nonsmooth dynamics, and it does not require short integration timesteps. The method encompasses a rolling resistance limit for static cases, similar t...

in this study, the effect of cold rolling process on the microstructure and texture evolution in 1wt. % si non-orientedelectrical steel was investigated. for this purpose, all samples were processed through single-stage hot rolling at1100 ° c and two-stage cold rolling (cross rolling and unidirectional rolling) with intermediate annealing at 650 °cfor 35 seconds. finally, all of them were fully...

It is well known that tandem cold rolling is one of the most widely used processes in the manufacture of various sheet products with high accuracy and production rate. This paper deals with an optimization problem for tandem cold rolling. A genetic algorithm is developed to optimize the reduction schedules from the power consumption and damage evolution points of view. Damage-coupled finite ele...

In this paper, a kinematic optimal design of a new parallel-type rolling mill based upon Stewart platform manipulator is investigated. The objective of this new parallel-type rolling mill is to permit an integrated control of the strip thickness, strip shape, pair crossing angle, uniform wear of the rolls, and tension of the strip. A manipulability measure, as the ratio of the manipulability el...
