Abstract: It is well known that a nonzero force is obtained when cutting forces measured at different feed rates but otherwise constant cutting conditions are extrapolated to zero feed rate. In the ...

Abstract: In grinding operations, the high specific energy generates high temperatures in the grinding zone, and therefore causes various types of thermal damage on the workpiece surface such as burn or ...

Abstract: It is well known that the edge geometry of a cutting tool affects the forces measured in metal cutting. Two experimental methods have been suggested in the past to extract the ploughing ...

Abstract: Friction stir blind riveting is a new joining process for one-sided joining (compared with the two-sided access required for, for example, self-piercing riveting) of aluminum alloys, which ...
