H-beams are generally produced by hot rolling composed of a Break Down Mill (BDM) and a Finishing Mill (FM). The goal of the current study was to develop BDM rolling of H300ｘ300 beams from blooms slit from slabs. In order to manufacture H300ｘ300 beams, the caliber design and the pass schedule of BDM rolling were proposed for a bloom instead of a beam blank. The proposed BDM caliber design and pass schedule were tested using FE-simulation and pilot tests. For the major shape dimensions, such as flange width, web height, web thickness, as well as BDM rolling loads, a comparative analysis between the FE-simulation and the pilot rolling tests was conducted. The results of FEM analysis and pilot rolling tests showed good consistency. Moreover, BDM rolling loads were predicted to be in the range of allowable rolling loads. It was concluded that the designed BDM rolling is suitable for implementation within current manufacturing capacity.

The thick plate produced by rolling process is used as the basic members of a ship structure. In this paper, we present a setup model to control the asymmetric factors causing plate bending in the upper or lower direction during rolling. A series of finite element analysis are conducted to predict the relationship between various asymmetric factors and plate bending. The setup model is developed by regressing the relationship to the linear equations with several non-dimensional parameters. The setup model is verified by a pilot rolling test and applied to actual rolling conditions. Results show that the model is substantial to predict the asymmetric deformation in the plate rolling process.

후판압연 중에 발생하는 소재의 평면형상과 손실량을 정확하게 고찰할 수 있는 유한요소에 기초한 접근법을 제시한다. 압연의 패스 수가 증가함에 따른 소재의 선, 후단부의 형상을 연속적으로 모사할 수 있는 3 차원 유한요소모델을 도입하였다. 본 모델의 가장 큰 특징은 다단 압연을 할 수 있도록 롤 갭이 순차적으로 감소됨에 따라 소재의 압연 방향을 바꾸면서 중단 없이 해석 가능하다는데 있다. 유한요소해석에서 요구되는 재료상수는 열간 인장시험에 의해서 실험적으로 얻어졌다. 제시된 유한요소모델의 유용성을 입증하기 위해서 파이롯트 열간 판압연 시험을 실시하였다. 제시된 유한요소모델로 계산된 평면형상과 손실량이 판압연 시험에서 실제 측정된 양과 매우 잘 일치하는 결과를 얻었다. 제시된 모델로 예측한 손실량과 판압연 시험에서 측정한 양 사이의 오차는 5% 이하로 나타났다.

A series of finite element analyses of the rolling process were performed and a neural network algorithm was employed to calculate the amount of ski-effect for an arbitrary thickness of incoming material in the roll gap. Pilot hot plate rolling tests were also conducted to verify the usefulness of the finite element analyzes conducted in this study. In these experiments, plates with thicknesses varying from 25 to 65 mm were tested. In addition, a number of rolling reductions of up to 31% were examined. Finally, a number of circumferential upper and lower rolls were investigated. Experimental validations demonstrated that the neural network algorithm predicted the proper amount of ski when rolling conditions(material thickness, reduction ratio, roll velocity differential) changed arbitrarily.

선박 건조를 위한 기본 자재인 후판은 압연공정을 통해 생산된다. 본 논문에서는 후판압연 중에 발생하는 폭방향 휨을 일으키는 비대칭 요인들을 제어할 수 있는 설정모델을 제시한다. 일련의 삼차원 유한요소해석을 통해서 휨과 비대칭 요인 사이의 관계를 예측한다. 그 관계를 무차원 변수로 이루어진 선형 방정식으로 수식화 시킴으로써 설정모델을 도출한다. 소재 폭방향으로 두께 편차와 온도차이가 있는 경우에 대해서 파이롯트 압연 시험으로 통해서 설정모델의 정도를 검증한다. 본 모델에 의해 예측된 휨 곡률이 각각의 비대칭 요인들에 의해 측정된 휨 곡률과 상당히 일치하는 결과를 보여 주었다.

압연실험을 통해서 폭 방향 변형 편차가 존재하는 실리콘 강판의 가공파손을 고찰하였다. 폭 방향 변형 편차는 강판에 웨이브를 발생시키고 압연방향으로 소재의 에지 부위(혹은 센터 부위)에 인장(혹은 압축)을 준다. 실제 압연기에서 발생하는 웨이브를 실험실적으로 구현하기 위해서 공형롤을 설계 및 제작하였다. 실험에 사용한 소재는 고-실리콘(약 3%) 강판이다. 본 실험을 통해서 센터 웨이브에 의해 발생되는 에지 부위 인장응력이 가공파손에 가장 지배적인 요인이라는 것이 제시되었다. 센터 웨이브를 일으키는 폭 방향 변형 편차의 정도에 따라 에지 파손과 지그재그 형태의 시편 중심 절손을 유발한다는 결과도 도출하였다.

In this study, an approach designed to compute high temperature friction coefficients for SCM 435 steel through a pilot hot rolling test and a finite element analysis, is proposed. Single pass pilot hot flat rolling tests with reduction ratios varying from 20 to 40% were carried out at temperatures ranging from 900 to $1200^{\circ}C$. In the proposed approach, the friction coefficient is calculated by comparing the measured strip spread and the roll force with the simulation results. This study showed that the temperature and reduction ratio had a significant influence on the friction coefficient. As both material temperature and reduction ratio become higher, the friction coefficient increases monotonically. This finding is not in agreement with the Ekelund model, which is widely used in the analysis of the hot rolling process. In the present work, the friction coefficient at a reduction ratio of 40% was found to be 1.2 times greater than that at a reduction of 30%. This higher friction coefficient means that an increment of the roll thrust force is expected at the next stand. Therefore, a roll pass designer must understand this phenomenon in order to adjust the reduction ratio at the stands while keeping the driving power, the roll housing structure and the work roll strength within the allowable range.

This study investigated Austenite Grain Size (AGS) distribution in Low-Speed Round-Oval Rolling. Rolling experiments were done along with the AGS numerical modeling to characterize the final AGS distribution and its kinetics behavior. For bar rolling experiment, we utilized the pilot rolling mill, operating at 34 fixed rpm, at POSCO Technical Research Laboratories. To investigate the microstructural observation, the rigid-viscoplastic finite element analysis was combined with Hodgson's AGS evolution model. To consider the transient thermal history in the integrative AGS modeling, additivity rule was introduced. The integrated analysis revealed that static or meta-dynamic recrystallization is responsible for the AGS difference in the inner or outer region of rolled bar. Comparative study showed that the current AGS modeling approach can be used to model the overall AGS distribution in bar rolling processes. For more accurate AGS prediction, the AGS modeling method should be verified under the various rolling conditions such as different rolling speeds and different deformations.

This study investigated tile local austenite grain size (AGS) distribution In rolling of SCM435 steel which is commonly used for high strength bolt. To investigate AGS distribution, round-oval (R-O) and square-diamond (S-D) rolling experiments were carried out with pilot mill. In round-oval rolling, local AGS has a tendency to increase when it goes to outward. In square-diamond rolling, local AGS has a tendency to increase when it goes to free surface. To investigate relation between AGS and process parameter, three dimensional FE analysis was carried out along with rolling experiment. To validate accuracy of FE analysis, we compared deformed geometry with FE result. The AGS prediction combined AGS model with numerical analysis was also carried out for center node of S-D rolling. Although this study brought experimental observation and its qualitative analysis into focus and quantitative AGS prediction will be done as a further work.

Increase in tensile strength of steel is important for fuel efficiency and $CO_2$ reduction. But the higher the strip strength, the more defect could be generated in hot strip mill. This study focuses on line-type edge scab. One of the causes for the defect is initial edge cracks commonly observed on a slab but their correlation has not been verified yet. Thus, the objective of this report is to verify if the edge crack is exactly the seed for edge scab. For this, we conducted pilot hot rolling test with cracked slab and compared the development of cracks and edge scabs on hot-rolled strip.
