The effects of all the factors on friction were considered as different roughness of surfaces. After lead rolling experiments in 5 different roughness grades, friction coefficients were obtained. With changing width-to-thickness ratio, reduction rate and ratio of diameter of roller to thickness, all the nominal friction coefficients which can be used in these formulas were calculated. Then, a fitting expression was proposed, comparing with the results measured in 232 times tests, the errors of the nominal friction coefficients calculated by the expression are mostly less than 12%. After a certain times self-learning, the errors are no more than 2%. With the varying nominal friction coefficients, the spread will be predicted more accurately. When the nominal friction coefficient is used to predict the spread under the real working condition, the results calculated are also in agreement with the measured ones, and the errors are less than 2%. This credible reference and solution about how to set the friction coefficient in spread formulas would also be used in practical industrial production.展开更多

Many researchers have proposed and applied a variety of control schemes for this problem, but the increasingly strict market demand for strip quality requires further improvements. This work describes a dynamic matrix predictive control(DMC) strategy that realizes the optimal control of a hydraulic looper multivariable system. Simulation experiments for a traditional controller and the proposed DMC controller were conducted using MATLAB/Simulink software. The simulation results show that both controllers acquire good control effects with model matching. However, when the model is mismatched, the traditional controller produces an overshoot of 32.4% and a rising time of up to 2120.2 ms, which is unacceptable in a hydraulic looper system. The DMC controller restricts the overshoot to less than 0.08%, and the rising time is less than 48.6 ms in all cases.展开更多

With the application of ANSYS/LS-DYNA, simulation analysis was used to research this process. The various factors which have a great influence on fishtail shapes were analysed, such as initial width, initial thickness, radius of the edger roll and horizontal roll, edging draught,horizontal reduction rate, and friction coefficient of the surface. Then the curves that can describe the shapes were obtained. After a certain time of self-learning, the optimized curves were given out. At last, through the fitting of the simulation test results, the math models for the area of fishtail defect changing with the presented factors were received. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the prediction for the fishtail shapes is more than 95%. With the application of the prediction for the fishtail shapes and the area of the fishtail defect, the loss rate of the slab is decreased by about 0.1%.展开更多
