Work roll wear in the cold rolling of mild steel strip is strongly affected by rolling materials, rolling conditions and lubrication. The tests were performed to find the effects of rolling materials under the same lubrication conditions. The obtained results are as follfws; 1) The decrease in surface roughness of work roll is more rapid in that case of continuously cast A1-killed steel strip than ingot cast steel strip. In rolling of continuously cast A1-killed steel strip, worn powder rich in A1$\_$2/O$\_$3/sticks to the work roll surface, and so it makes the mirror surface of work roll accelerate. 2) Amount of work roll wear is small in rolling of continuously cast A1-killed strip. 3) In rolling of continously cast A1-killed steel strip, it is necessary to put up the intial surface roughness of work roll in order to prevent work roll slip.

The effect of lubrication on the evolution of the cold rolling texture in low carbon steels was studied by X-ray texture measurement. The cold rolling texture was inhomogeneous through the thickness of the rolling sheet. The type and sharpness of the texture through the thickness and the degree of inhomogeneity were found to be dependent on the friction acting between rolls and the rolled materials. The degree of the through thickness inhomogeneities was higher in the specimen rolled without lubrication. The friction acting on the roll surface led to the formation of the Goss-Orientation in the rolling texture.

The spheroidization behavior of cementite in a SK85 high carbon steel was investigated in this study. Fine and coarse pearlite microstructures were obtained by appropriate heat treatments according to the TTT diagram of SK85 high carbon steel. Hot rolled plates of SK85 steel were austenitized at $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs and then put directly into a salt bath at either $570^{\circ}C$ or $670^{\circ}C$ to obtain a fine pearlite (FP) structure and a coarse pearlite (CP) structure, respectively. Cold rolling was subsequently conducted on those specimens with reduction ratios from 0.2 to 0.4. Spheroidization heat treatments were conducted at the subcritical temperatures of 600 and $720^{\circ}C$ for 1 to 32 hrs to elucidate the effect of initial microstructures, heat treatment temperature, and cold reduction ratios on the cementite spheroidization rate. Spheroidization proceeded with fragmentation of cementite plates, spheroidization of the cementite platelets, and coarsening consecutively. Mechanical fragmentation of cementite by cold rolling expedited the rate of spheroidization. The spheroidization rate of FP was much more rapid than that of CP and the spheriodization rate increased with increases in the cold reduction ratio.

In order to obtain the initial starting sample having a random texture and fine grains, aluminum alloy 3103 sheets were repeatedly deformed by CCSS up to six passages and subsequently annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ for 1h. These samples were cold rolled at room temperature and also warm rolled at $250^{\circ}C$. Changes in rolling temperature gave rise to the different texture evolution. Warm rolling led to the pronounced texture gradients comprising the shear texture at the surface and the rolling texture at the sheet center. The formation of the rolling texture components, i.e., the ${\beta}$-fiber, was promoted by cold rolling than warm rolling.

The development of rolling texture is dependent on the various rolling condition. And the geometry of rolling gab and the friction between rolls and rolled material mainly affect the type and sharpness of texture inhomogeneity through thickness. In order to follow the effect of geometry and friction various strain/pass and lubrication condition were applied during cold rolling. In this investigation various strain/pass and lubrication were applied during cold rolling in order to follow the effect rolling gap geometry and friction. More high 1/h was, more weak the ${\beta}$-fiber was and in the condition of l/h > 5 {001}<110> shear texture developed. In adition, rolling without lubrication enhanced the shear texture.

With the introduction of edge drop control system in Tandem Cold Rolling Mill, it is necessary to develop te numerical expression for the set-up and edge drop automatic control of cold rolled sheet. As a first step we developed a simulation program which predicts profile and the amounts of edge drop at the delivery side of each stand by using roll deformation anlysis with the slit roll model. And by using the program the effect of various rolling conditions on edge drop was investigated. As a result the relations were obtained between the amounts of edge drop and rolling conditions. Based on above relations, the numerical expression was developed for the set-up and automatic control of edge drop by multi-regression of simulation results for the variation of edge drop amount with each rolling condition.

Recently, the necessity for more accurate automatic gauge control has increased of customers' requirement for cold rolled steel sheets with thinner gauge and better gauge quality. Therefore, many cold rolling mills replaced its electric screw down automatic gauge control system with a new hydraulic automatic gauge control system, to ensure closer gauge tolerance. In this paper, The performance of a hydraulic automatic gauge control system for cold rolling has been investigated under industrial conditions. It was investigated that variation of gauge deviation according to the final products thickness, cold rolling speed and pass number, in the actual rolling mill. As a result, it was found that the system enables strip thickness variation to be reduced substantially and caused by poor gauge deviation have been drastically decreased. The test results are as following. The more the exit steel strip thickness is thick, the smaller the aguge deviation rate is large, and the more it is thin, the large the gauge deviation rate is large. Because the gauge deviation is larger at accleration speed and deceleration speed than steady speed, so automatic gauge control system is better to adopt over 50m/min. automatic gauge control system reduces rapidly large thickness deviation.

Cold rolling mill process in steel works uses stands of rolls to flatten a strip to a desired thickness. Most of rolling processes use mathematical models to predict rolling force which is very important to decide the resultant thickness of a coil. In general, these mathematical models are not flexible for variant coil types and cannot handle various elements which is practically important to decide accurate rolling force. A corrective neural network is proposed to improve the accuracy of rolling force prediction. Additional variables-composition of the coil, coiling temperature and working roll parameters-are fed to the network. The model uses an MLP with BP to predict a corrective coefficient. The test results using 1,586 process data collected at POSCO in early 1995 show that the proposed model reduced the prediction error by 30% on average.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of cold working on the tensile strength of Fe-26Mn-4Co-2Al damping alloy. ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ and ${\varepsilon}$-martensite were formed by cold working, and martensite was formed with the specific direction and surface relief. With the increasing degree of cold rolling, volume fraction of ${\alpha}^{\prime}$-martensite was increased, whereas the volume fraction of ${\varepsilon}$-martensite was decreased after rising to maximum value at specific lever of cold rolling. Tensile strength was linearly increased with an increasing of degree of cold rolling. Tensile strength was strongly affected to the volume fraction of ${\varepsilon}$-martensite formed by cold working, but the effect of volume fraction of ${\varepsilon}$-martensite on the tensile strength was not observed.
