crops and agricultural products are subject to natural loading during growth. different mechanical forces are also exerted on them during harvest. one product, sugar cane, experiences large shear forces are during harvest. an examination of the crop properties and machine parameters of sugar cane are necessary to develop appropriate cutting tools and the optimization and design of harvesting ma...

We study complex dynamics of a cutting process, a recently developed frictional model of cutting process in [Rusinek et al., 2014] to gain better insight into the mechanics of frictional chatter and the factors affecting it. The new model takes into account the forces acting on the tool face as well as on the tool flank. We first present nonlinear dynamic behavior using bifurcation diagrams for...

Since the cutting tools used in machining process of super alloys are subjected to high cutting forces, accordingly tools life is reduced, therefore improvement in alloys machining and reducing cutting forces to achieve longer tools life is an essential necessity. In this research, the effect of changes in feed rate on cutting forces in machining process of nickel based super alloys is investig...

abstract: nowadays, the non-traditional processes such as “laser, edm and awj” used for cutting high thickness sheet metal. hardox is hard and tough steel alloy and it has many industrialize applications. one best process to cut the hardox is abrasive water jet (awj) cutting.  it can cuts complex shape with high quality and accurate tolerance.  awj cutting offers certain unique benefits such as...

The experimental investigation on cutting tool wear and a model for tool wear estimation is reported in this paper. The changes in the values of cutting forces, vibrations and acoustic emissions with cutting tool wear are recoded and analyzed. On the basis of experimental results a model is developed for tool wear estimation in turning operations using Adaptive Neuro fuzzy Inference system (ANF...

Considering the issues involved in industrial cutting and machining systems, and, in particular, the problems arising from the use of cutting fluids in these systems, this study presents the results of an analysis that points to a safe and efficient way to reduce contaminated microbial cutting fluids using ultraviolet radiation. The study proposes a transmitter system of simple ultraviolet radi...

In this work, a MIMO H. controller for the linear motor machine tool feed drives has been designed to reduce tracking errors induced by cutting forces for end milling. The controller is designed using normalized coprime factorization method for the dynamic model of the linear motor system including constant in-line and cross coupling force gain, since the feedback cutting force can be considere...

We consider the problem of fair division of a two dimensional heterogeneous good among several agents. Applications include division of land as well as ad space in print and electronic media. Classical cake cutting protocols either consider a one-dimensional resource, or allocate each agent several disconnected pieces. In practice, however, the two dimensional shape of the allotted piece is of ...
