Primer for Flat Rolling is the outcome of over three decades of involvementwith the rolling process. It is based on the authors yearly set of lecturesdelivered to engineers and technologists working in the rolling metal industry.The essential and basic ideas involved in designing and analysis of the rollingprocess are presented. The three components of flat rolling the mill therolled metal and their interface are discussed and illustrated in detail. Newprocesses are also mentioned flexible rolling and accumulative rollbonding.The last chapter contains problems the solutions of which will aid inappreciating the complexities of flat rolling.The aim is to introduce theengineers technologists and students to the background of this field to easetheir planning and analyzing of processes. Includes an instructors manual Evaluates the predictive capabilities ofmathematical models Assignments and their solutions are included «
