In a slab rolling operation, the maximum thickness reduction (∆hmax) is given by ∆hmax = μ² . R , where R is the radius of the roll and μ is the coefficient of friction between the roll and the sheet. If μ = 0.1, the maximum angle subtended by the deformation zone at the centre of the roll (bite angle in degree) is _____.
