Chapter 7

A 1-in. \(\times 36\)-in.(thickness \(\times\) width) slab enters a hot-rolling mill at 500 feet per minute. It passes through seven stands and emerges as a strip \(0.25\) in. \(\times 36\) in. What is the exit speed of the strip from the last set of rollers?

Estimate the shear rate during ceramic tape casting when the substrate velocity is \(3 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\) and the blade height is \(50 \mu \mathrm{m}\).
