A poly crystal approach coupled with damage, one of the process model previously proposed for the simulation of milli‐forming, was applied to milli‐rolling. In order to obtain the proper initial values of field variables for the anisotropic, dilatant, viscoplastic flow problems when using an Eulerian analysis, special treatments are devised. Mutual effects of the texture development and damage evolution are carefully examined in terms of the distributions of strain components, accumulated damage, R‐value as well as yield surfaces.
