For plastic deformed parts, the dimensional accuracy is significantly affected by residual stresses and so does the performance in service. Therefore, the rolling process of GH4169 alloy sheet at room temperature was investigated by finite element method. The effects of rolling reduction, friction coefficient, rolling velocity and initial stress on the longitudinal residual stress distribution over the thickness of GH4169 alloy sheet were analyzed. The results show that the values of longitudinal residual stress can be slightly reduced by increasing the rolling reduction and velocity. The longitudinal residual stress over the thickness distributes as ‘‘V'' type or weak ‘‘W'' type. The initial stress mainly has an effect on the longitudinal stress in the backward slip area. But the friction coefficient has remarkable influence on longitudinal residual stress. With the friction coefficient increasing from 0.1 to 0.5, the value of longitudinal residual stress on the sheet surface is reduced by 282 MPa. Simultaneously, the tensile stress turns into compressive stress with a strong‘‘W'' type distribution.
