A High magnitude of von Mises stress is considered a source of plastic deformation, fatigue crack initiation, and surface defects. A Detailed finite element model (FEM) was proposed here to estimate the thermo-mechanical stress and residual stress components at an industrial hot rolling work roll during the rolling process. Also, a semi-analytical...
