The course take steel rolling as the object, make students understanding the steel rolling process of typical products, studies the basic theory, analysis methods and engineering examples of the technology, and grasps the theoretical knowledge and research methods in the aspects of plastic deformation, roll gap friction and lubrication, analytical calculation of rolling pressure, mill strength and deformation, rolling mill vibration, etc., focusing on training students the consciousness and ability of solving practical problems by using plasticity theory, friction theory, strength theory and vibration theory. It is suitable for graduate and undergraduate students who have a certain understanding of rolling machinery, pressure processing and related majors.
