Microstructural Modelling Applied to the Design and Control of the Steel Plate Rolling Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Modern steel plate manufacture relies on the manipulation of recrystallisation and grain growth in order to obtain maximised and precise mechanical properties from low-alloyed feedstock. The models that describe this metallurgical process nowadays inform the design of the plant itself. They are also capable of application to the on-line control of rolling, as well as to several of the ancillary mill operations.
