Abstract
The purpose of this work is to evaluate the performance of several wear models, either with different mathematical formulation or different definition of the unknown wear coefficients, on the prediction of the work-roll wear amplitude in Hot Strip Mills (HSM). To achieve this goal, a classical model calibration approach based on inverse optimization has been developed to calibrate these several wear models. A large industrial hot rolling database composed by roll wear amplitude measurements for both later finishing mill stands (F6 and F7) from ArcelorMittal Dofasco HSM was considered and a least-square cost function was applied to minimize the differences between both numerical and experimental results during the optimization process. The averaged roll wear gap between measurements and optimized numerical predictions was then used as a quantitative indicator to compare the performance between the wear models and identify the most suitable one for roll wear prediction. In addition, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach was developed based on the most suitable wear model. Thus, roll wear predictions obtained using the ANN were compared with the ones obtained using Classical calibration to evaluate the performance of both approaches.
