The rolling process is an excellent method for processing new high performance polymers. Skew rolling, as a highly accurate and highly efficient rolling technology, has been commonly used to enhance mechanical properties and productivity. However, the complexity of the mechanics in the skew rolling process of polymers is a significant challenge for manufacturers and researchers. In this work, m...

Much of the attention on simulation software in recent years has been focused on the modelling of bulk metal forming processes such as forging, rolling and extrusion. However, there are numerous applications for the simulation of sheet forming processes and indeed many pressings suppliers in the automotive industry are more advanced in the use of simulation than their forging counterparts. The ...

Study of various transportation indicators could be an appropriate criterion in evaluating the performance of the existing railways throughout the globe. This study was carried out to investigate the performance of rolling stock of Iranian railway using productivity analysis. In order to solve the problems, some solutions were provided by productivity management cycle steps. At the first step, ...

The selective detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is of significant clinical importance for the clinical diagnosis and prognosis of cancer metastasis. However, largely because of the extremely low number of CTCs (as low as 1 in 10(9) hematologic cells) in the blood of patients, effective detection and separation of the rare cells remain a tremendous challenge. Cell rolling is known to p...

∗ Previous address: Department of Automation, Tianjin University, P. R. China Abstract In steel rolling industry, control of hot metal rolling process plays an important role in assuring high product quality and safe process operation. Although many advanced looper control technologies for finishing rolling process have emerged, looperless interstand tension control of roughing rolling mills re...

Parts produced by microforming are becoming ever smaller. Similarly, the foils required in micro-machines are becoming ever thinner. The asymmetric rolling technique is capable of producing foils that are thinner than those produced by the conventional rolling technique. The difference between asymmetric rolling and conventional rolling is the 'cross-shear' zone. However, the influence of the c...
