Abstract: Several models for metal cutting temperatures which could be applied in simulation programs have been reported in the literature. Since the temperature predicted by the models are difficult to ...

Abstract: Since cutting tools wear by temperature-activated mechanisms, it would be desirable to make tool temperature measurements during machinability tests. However, none of the laboratory methods for ...

Abstract: A major obstacle in verifying metal cutting temperature models and including thermal variables in empirical studies is the experimental difficulty of measuring physically meaningful cutting ...

Abstract: It has been proposed several times in the metal-cutting literature that the machining process is non-unique and that the instantaneous machining conditions depend on the prior machining conditions ...

Abstract: This paper summarizes the results of theoretical and experimental studies of tool temperatures in interrupted cutting. In the theoretical study, the temperature in a semi-infinite rectangular ...

Abstract: Obtaining accurate baseline force data is often the critical step in applying machining simulation codes. The accuracy of the baseline cutting data determines the accuracy of simulated results. ...

Abstract: This paper describes a model for calculating transient and steady-state drill temperatures for drills with arbitrary point geometries. The model is based on temperature solutions for a semi-infinite ...

Abstract: Using the method described in Part I, numerical models for predicting chip form and the principal components of power consumption are developed for oblique end turning and drilling. Applying ...

Abstract: A numerical modeling method for predicting chip form and power requirements in three-dimensional cutting processes is described. The method is based on variational (energy) results from the theory ...
