12 Results Cont. 3D Model  Technique allows investigation of the influence of roll diameter, rotating speed, and tension force on final lateral spread of wire.  Lateral spread of the cross- section can be predicted.  Residual stress, equivalent strain, strain rate and equivalent stress distribution are obtained.  Fracture criteria can be incorporated during the rolling process. 2D Model  Equivalent plastic strain, total strain and stress can be obtained.  Spread of material as a function of the roll shape can be controlled

13 Conclusions 3D Model Application to a multi-pass profile leads to very long computational time. High accuracy is attainable 2D Model Shorter computing time and less computer memory are required. Useful when several passes are required May reduce the number of industrial trials.

14 Conclusions Cont. No technical advancement is created. Study simply verifies that the 2D FE approach is less time intensive then the 3D FE approach. Study does not investigate other programs, but does show that it is possible to predict the behavior/outcome when dealing with complicated profiles.
