The method of calculation for normal contact stresses in elastic sections of the deformation zone during rolling of low-alloyed structural carbon steels is supplemented by the dependence of the change in the elasticity modulus of the strips on temperature. 2. A regression equation is obtained for predicting the calculated values of the elasticity modulus of such steels as a function of the change in hot rolling temperature.
