Abstract
The stiffness of the rolling mill roll system plays a crucial role in determining the shape of the hot rolled strip steel plate. It is directly influenced by the spatial position of the rolling mill roll system. This study establishes a numerical model of rolling mill stiffness through the spatial position of the roll system, and validates its accuracy using field measured data. Through the developed model, relevant data of the cross state and stiffness of the roll system are obtained. Focusing on the hot rolling mill, we propose a deep neural network (DNN) model called particle swarm optimization back propagation neural network (PSO-BP). The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is improved based on practical experience and simulation analysis: an adjustment factor α  is introduced to enforce physical constraints (influence weight of backup roll > work roll, drive side > operating side). Additionally, a nonlinear mapping mathematical model is established to quantify the relationship between the cross state of the roll system axis induced by the wear of the mill stand liner, and the mill stiffness. Our results demonstrate that the PSO-optimized BP model has higher prediction accuracy than conventional BP, genetic algorithm-BP (GA-BP), and PSO-BP without the adjustment factor.
