Mathematical and Physical Simulation of the Properties of Hot Rolled Products

The objective of this publication is to comprehensively discuss the possibilities of producing steels with pre-determined attributes, demanded by the customer to fit exacting specifications. The information presented in the book has been designed to indicate the reasons for the expenses and to aid in the process of overcoming the difficulties and reducing the costs. In nine detailed chapters, the authors cover topics including: bull; steel as a major contributor to the economic wealth of a country in terms of its capabilities and production bull; current concerns of major steel producers bull; phenomena contributing to the quality of the product bull; information concerning the boundary conditions of the rolling process and initial conditions, put to use by mathematical models bull; the solid state incremental approach and flow formulation bull; parameters and variables - most of which make use of the exponential nature of phenomena that are activated by thermal energy bull; the application of three dimensional analysis to shape rolling bull; the evaluation of parameters by a form of inverse analysis to the flat rolling process bull; knowledge based modeling, using artificial intelligence, expert systems and neural networks They conclude that when either mathematical or physical modeling of the rolling process is considered and the aim is to satisfy the demands for customers, it is possible to produce what the customer wants, exactly.Lenard, J. G. is the author of 'Mathematical and Physical Simulation of the Properties of Hot Rolled Products' with ISBN 9780080427010 and ISBN 0080427014.
