Work and pressure during rolling

Abstract

Issues of work and pressure during rolling, which are obviously related to one another, have long been the subject of research, both theoretical and experimental. The number of major experimental studies devoted to these issues is small. For my part, I shall dwell only on those conclusions of other researchers whose consideration is prompted by the course of my own investigation (see the article). The theoretical study by Codron was accompanied by laboratory experiments on the rolling of lead bars between rolls of small diameter. I shall discuss these experiments in some detail later, since they, above all, gave me the opportunity to verify the correctness of the theoretical formulas I derived.
