Problem Statement

Rolls are commonly used to transport and guide strip through mills and strip coating lines. A better understand is sought on the mechanics of the strip transport, with special emphasis on explanations of observed strip defects and tracking instability. Strip defects of interest include the generation of strip buckling/wrinkling between transport rolls due to roll misalignment or roll profile, the latter being the variation in roll diameter along the roll axis.
