Abstract
The shape control problem for a Sendzimir 20-roll cold rolling steel mill is characterised by operation
over a wide range
of
conditions arising from roll changes, changes in rolling schedules
and
changes in material
gauge, width and hardness. Previous approaches
to the problem suggest storing a large number of
precompensator matrices
to
cater for the full range
of
operating conditions. This paper, on the other hand,
attempts
to synthesise a controller which is optimally robust to changes in the conditions associated with the
rolling cluster, resulting in a reduced storage requirement for the controlling computer. The performance
of
the
robust controller is evaluated via nonlinear simulation.
