Based on the hot rolling process, a load distribution optimization model is established, which includes rolling force model, thickness distribution model, and temperature model. The rolling force ratio distribution and good strip shape are integrated as two indicators of objective function in the optimization model. Then, the evolutionary algorithm for complex-process optimization (EACOP) is introduced in the following optimization algorithm. Due to its flexible framework structure on search mechanism, the EACOP is improved within differential evolutionary strategy, for better coverage speed and search efficiency. At last, the experimental and simulation result shows that evolutionary algorithm for complex-process optimization based on differential evolutionary strategy (DEACOP) is the organism including local search and global search. The comparison with experience distribution and EACOP shows that DEACOP is able to use fewer adjustable parameters and more efficient population differential strategy during solution searching; meanwhile it still can get feasible mathematical solution for actual load distribution problems in hot rolling process.

A 3-D thermal-mechanical model was built to simulate the hot rolling process of medium plate, with the aid of nonlinear commercial FE code MSC.SuperForm on a company's actual process parameters. The hot rolling process of single-pass which slab thickness is 180mm was simulated, and the influence of pass reduction on metal flow, stress-strain field, contact stress and rolling force were researched. The study revealed that pass reduction should be at least 20% by increase depress in pass in addition to rolling efficiency. As that, rolling efficiency be increased, roll contact stress be brought down, and its service life be prolonged. And metal plastic strain enhanced, metal flow increased, but its strain field non-uniformly distributed, metal flow and plastic deformation would be strengthen by increase pass reduction, and the lateral broadening in the head is bigger than that in the tail.

The paper is an investigation of strip curvature caused by the different speeds between the upper work roll and the lower work roll in the rolling process for an aluminum strip. At the same time, we analyzed the variations in the temperature field and strain field, and used a method of speeds variation of the upper and lower work rolls to calibrate the deformation curvature caused by the coolant condition in the hot rolling process. Based on the large deformation-large strain theory, and by means of the Updated Lagrangean Formulation (ULF) and increment theory, a coupled thermoelastic-plastic analysis model for hot rolling process is thus constructed. At the same time the finite difference method was also used to solve the transient heat transfer equation. Finally, the numerical analysis method developed in this study was employed to analyze the changes in the aluminum strip’s temperature and other changes during rolling. In addition, the average rolling force obtained from the simulation was compared with that from the experiments. It verified that the model in this study is reasonable.

Computational simulation has become more important in the design of thermomechanical processing since it allows the optimization of associated parameters such as temperature, stresses, strains and phase transformations. This work presents the results of the three-dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation of the hot rolling process of a medium Mn steel using DEFORM-3D software. Temperature and effective strain distribution in the surface and center of the sheet were analyzed for different rolling passes; also the change in damage factor was evaluated. According to the hot rolling simulation results, experimental hot rolling parameters were established in order to obtain the desired microstructure avoiding the presence of ferrite precipitation during the process. The microstructural characterization of the hot rolled steel was carried out using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that the phases present in the steel after hot rolling are austenite and α′-martensite. Additionally, to understand the mechanical behavior, tensile tests were performed and concluded that this new steel can be catalogued in the third automotive generation.

Pipe steel sheet is manufactured by hot rolling technological process. Technological regimes of every technological operation can vary in a wide range affecting pipe steel sheet properties. It is shown that system analysis provides the effective way for searching out the basics for mathematical modeling of multi-variant technological processes. The detailed scheme of steel sheet hot rolling process is presented, determining its input and output parameters. Flows of material, energy, and information are presented for each technological operation. Metallurgical concept of pipe steel manufacturing is shown as the basics for competitive product manufacturing. It is proposed to analyze the hot rolling process as a set of target functions, which will make it possible to achieve the pipe steel sheet with the desired level of mechanical properties. The proposed approach based on system analysis allows to find tendencies for further development of hot rolling.
