Modeling of waterjet guided laser grooving of silicon
نویسندگان
چکیده
Waterjet guided laser processing is an internationally patented technique based on guiding a laser inside a thin, high-speed waterjet. The process combines the advantages of laser processing with those of waterjet cutting and offers promise as a method for processing thin and heat sensitive materials with a high degree of precision. An improved understanding of the complex interaction between laser, waterjet, and workpiece is required to enable the process to achieve its potential. A model for waterjet guided laser grooving of silicon is presented that treats the energy input of the laser, the cooling effect of the waterjet, and the melting and removal of the silicon. The thermal process is represented in detail in the new method. The model is validated by comparisons of simulation and experimental results, and the simulation provides insight regarding the details of the interactions among laser, waterjet, and workpiece. 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Numerical modeling of machining processes is of significance in the parametric analysis and optimization of their performance. In this paper, a finite element-based model of abrasive waterjet (AWJ) cutting of a ductile material is presented with the help of an explicit, nonlinear finite element method. In this model, both solid-solid interaction and fluid-structure interaction are considered. T...
