Abstract: Specific material removal rate (MRR) q′ was calculated for five-axis grinding in a virtual machining simulation environment (VMSE). The axis-symmetric tool rotational profile was arc-length parameterized. The twisted grazing ...

Abstract: Understanding the effects of tool wear is critical to predicting tool life, the point at which tool performance, in terms of power requirement, dimensional error, surface finish, burring, or ...

Abstract: In the machining of high-strength materials, shear localization in serrated chip formation leads to time-varying thermo-mechanical loads exerted by the cutting tool on the machined surface. This results in periodic changes ...
