Abstract
This study presents an analytical model for calculating flat rolling force in corrugated-flat rolling (CFR) using the slab method. The model fully accounts for the shear effect on the vertical sides of the differential element within the deformation zone. By formulating the static equilibrium differential equation and incorporating boundary conditions and yield criteria, key deformation parameters are determined. Experimental validation through flat rolling tests and numerical simulations of Cu/Al corrugated composite sheets confirms the model’s accuracy, with deviations of 0.85% and 2.32% between simulated, measured, and calculated rolling forces. The model is further applied to analyze rolling pressure distributions under two contact states, exploring the effects of shear yield stress and friction factor ratios on rolling pressure and specific horizontal stress. Additionally, the influence of reduction rates, shear yield stress ratios, and friction factor ratios on rolling force and the bottom roll neutral point position is systematically examined. The proposed model provides a reliable theoretical foundation for understanding mechanical behavior in flat rolling, optimizing process parameters, improving composite sheet quality, and advancing CFR technology.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Mechanical Sciences (IJMS) serves as a global platform for the publication and dissemination of original research that contributes to a deeper scientific understanding of the fundamental disciplines within mechanical, civil, and material engineering.
The primary focus of IJMS is to showcase innovative and ground-breaking work that utilizes analytical and computational modeling techniques, such as Finite Element Method (FEM), Boundary Element Method (BEM), and mesh-free methods, among others. These modeling methods are applied to diverse fields including rigid-body mechanics (e.g., dynamics, vibration, stability), structural mechanics, metal forming, advanced materials (e.g., metals, composites, cellular, smart) behavior and applications, impact mechanics, strain localization, and other nonlinear effects (e.g., large deflections, plasticity, fracture).
Additionally, IJMS covers the realms of fluid mechanics (both external and internal flows), tribology, thermodynamics, and materials processing. These subjects collectively form the core of the journal's content.
In summary, IJMS provides a prestigious platform for researchers to present their original contributions, shedding light on analytical and computational modeling methods in various areas of mechanical engineering, as well as exploring the behavior and application of advanced materials, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and materials processing.
