Abstract: The arc of contact between an individual abrasive particle in a grinding wheel and the workpiece is an important parameter that may be readily calculated if local deflections of wheel and ...

Abstract: A new technique for studying the performance of abrasive tools is described that is not only useful for evaluating the rate of wear of grinding systems but is also capable of yielding difficult ...

Abstract: The present study estimates the critical/buckling loads of laminated composite rectangular plates under in-plane uniaxial and biaxial loadings. The formulation is based on the first-order shear deformation theory and ...

Abstract: It is generally found that grinding transverse to the tensile stress direction in flexure bars subjected to four-point bending results in a lower strength compared to grinding in the longitudinal ...
