  • Rolling Process Bulk Deformation Forming
    Rolling Process Bulk deformation forming (rolling) Rolling is the process of reducing the thickness (or changing the cross-section) of a long workpiece by compressive forces applied through a set of rolls. This is the most widely used metal working process because it lends itself high production and close control of the final product. Bulk deformation forming (rolling) Bulk deformation forming (rolling) Rolling typically starts with a rectangular ingots and results in rectangular Plates (t > 6 mm), sheet (t < 3 mm), rods, bars, I- beams, rails etc Figure: Rotating rolls reduce the thickness of the incoming ingot Flat rolling practice Hot rolled round rods (wire rod) are used as the starting material for rod and wire drawing operations The product of the first hot-rolling operation is called a bloom A bloom usually has a square cross-section, at least 150 mm on the side, a rolling into structural shapes such as I-beams and railroad rails . Slabs are rolled into plates and sheets. Billets usually are square and are rolled into various shapes Hot rolling is the most common method of refining the cast structure of ingots and billets to make primary shape. Hot rolled round rods (wire rod) are used as the starting material for rod and wire drawing operations Bars of circular or hexagonal cross-section like Ibeams, channels, and rails are produced in great quantity by hoe rolling with grooved rolls. Cold rolling is most often a secondary forming process that is used to make bar, sheet, strip and foil with superior surface finish and dimensional tolerances.

  • The Ductility Number Nd Provides a Rigorous Measure for the Ductility of Materials Failure
    XXV. THE DUCTILITY NUMBER ND PROVIDES A RIGOROUS MEASURE FOR THE DUCTILITY OF MATERIALS FAILURE 1. Introduction There was just one decisive, really pivotal occurrence throughout the entire history of trying to develop general failure criteria for homogenous and isotropic materials. The setting was this: Coulomb [1] had laid the original groundwork for failure and then a great many years later Mohr [2] came along and put it into an easily usable form. Thus was born the Mohr- Coulomb theory of failure. There was broad and general enthusiasm when Mohr completed his formulation. Many people thought that the ultimate, general theory of failure had finally arrived. There was however a complication. Theodore von Karman was a young man at the time of Mohr’s developments. He did the critical experimental testing of the esteemed new theory and he found it to be inadequate and inconsistent [3]. Von Karman’s work was of such high quality that his conclusion was taken as final and never successfully contested. He changed an entire course of technical and scientific development. The Mohr-Coulomb failure theory subsided and sank while von Karman’s professional career rose and flourished. Following that, all the attempts at a general materials failure theory remained completely unsatisfactory and unsuccessful (with the singular exception of fracture mechanics). Finally, in recent years a new theory of materials failure has been developed, one that may repair and replace the shortcomings that von Karman uncovered. The present work pursues one special and very important aspect of this new theory, the ductile/brittle failure behavior.

Rolling is a metal forming process in which metal is passed through a pair of rotating rolls for plastic deformation of the metall. Rolling is classified according to the temperature of the metal rolled. If the temperature of the metal is above its recrystallization temperature, then the process is termed as hot rolling. If the temperature of the metal is below its recrystallization temperature, the process is termed as cold rolling. A rolling mill is a machine for plastic deformation of metal between rotating rolls. In a broader sense, a rolling mill is an automatic system or line of machines that performs both rolling and auxiliary operations: transport of the original billet from the stock to the heating furnaces and the mill rolls, transfer of the rolled material from one groove to another, turning, transport of the metal after rolling, cutting into sections, marking or stamping, trimming, packing, and conveyance to the stock of finished product.
