A general kinematically admissible velocity field has been proposed in this work to examine the plastic deformation behavior of the sheet at the roll gap during shape rolling of a V-sectioned sheet. This velocity field is employed to examine the geometry of the rolled product, which are effected by various rolling conditions such as the sizes of the raw sheet and the vacancy, thickness reduction, etc. Furthermore, experiments on cold shape rolling of aluminum sheet have also been conducted. The rolling forces and the shape of the rolled product were measured to compare with the analytical values. Through the comparisons between them, the validity of this newly proposed velocity field was verified. [S1087-1357(00)71301-3]
