Mathematical modelling, optimization and quality monitoring for side-trimming of heavy steel plates
Side-trimming is an essential processing step in the steel industry. In this research project, optimization and estimation strategies are developed to minimize common quality defects of the trimmed edges and to realize systematic quality monitoring of these edges. Read more →
