Abstract: This paper is one of four being presented simultaneously on the subject of self-excited machine-tool chatter. Transfer-function theory is applied to obtain a representation of the dynamics of a ...

Abstract: This paper is one of a series of four being presented simultaneously on the subject of self-excited machine-tool chatter. It deals primarily with the applications of the closed-loop chatter ...

Abstract: A feedback loop that instantaneously controls the tool-work motion is successfully applied to an engine lathe for the purpose of reducing vibrations. The extent to which chatter-free performance ...
