  1. 50. Research on Pulsed Current-assisted Rolling Forming and Microstructure–Properties of Pure Titanium Ultra-thin Strips
    Shufeng Wei (College of Mechanical Engineering, Taiyuan University of Technology, Taiyuan 030024, China)
    14/10/2026, 14:00
    Oral presentation (paper for journal’s special issue)

    Pure titanium ultra-thin strips have extensive applications in the aerospace, new energy, and electronic communication industries. However, pure titanium exhibits poor formability at room temperature and high deformation resistance; conventional cold rolling processes for producing pure titanium ultra-thin strips face challenges such as significant work hardening, limitations on rolling...

  2. 60. Heat Transfer Study in Descaling and Roll Cooling on Blooming Line
    Milan Hnizdil (Brno University of Technology, Heat transfer and fluid flow laboratory, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering)
    14/10/2026, 14:20
    Oral presentation (paper for journal’s special issue)

    Efficient control of heat transfer during hot rolling is essential for both product quality and rolls lifetime. This paper presents results from research on various descaling strategies and work-roll cooling.
    Experimental investigations of various descaling systems—including conventional high-pressure nozzles, opposite-nozzle configurations, hydromechanical rotary descaling (HIDROD), and shot...

  3. 58. Extending SBQ Rolling to Large Diameters: Stainless and Special Steels from 3.75 to 16 inches at FRISA Steel
    Alberto Vazquez
    14/10/2026, 14:40
    Oral Presentation

    The supply of large-diameter bars in stainless and special steels has historically been constrained by process limitations, with forging routes dominating production above 6 inches due to perceived advantages in internal soundness and metallurgical control. However, increasing demand for consistency, productivity, and cost efficiency in critical applications is progressively redefining the...

  4. 33. Extension and Application of Hot Workability Prediction Model in Thermomechanical Processing
    SHUO GUO (Policlinico di Milano)
    14/10/2026, 15:00
    Oral presentation (paper for journal’s special issue)

    Predicting hot workability is a critical challenge in thermomechanical processing. Traditional approaches are primarily based on the theory of hot processing maps, which evaluate power dissipation efficiency and deformation instability factor under various deformation conditions. The power dissipation efficiency characterizes the kinetics of microstructural evolution, whereas the deformation...

  5. 57. Shear and dynamic effects on hot deformation of Fe-25Mn-5Al-0.7C lightweight steel
    Ruowei Li (Politecnico di Milano)
    14/10/2026, 15:20
    Oral presentation (paper for journal’s special issue)

    FeMnAlC lightweight steel exhibits a narrow hot-working window. In industrial rolling, shear stress and dynamic parameter variations are unavoidable and may induce defects. This study compares the hot deformation behavior of Fe-25Mn-5Al-0.7C steel under uniaxial compression versus shear compression using Gleeble 3800 tests at 950–1100 °C and 0.01–10 s⁻¹, including sudden temperature/strain...
