ABSTRACT In this paper, the phenomenon of chatter vibration in metal cutting is investigated. For this purpose, a theoretical one-degree of freedom model of the vibrations generated in an orthogonal cutting process is developed. The dynamic cutting forces are strongly affected by the variations of the cutting process parameters, and the model is based on the mechanical theoretical prediction of...

In view of the broken rock mass in surrounding large underground caverns, 3D distribution model joints is obtained through on-site investigation and digital imaging technology, image processing software. Based on analysis mutual cutting degree geometric shape block, concepts calculation methods fragmentation bite are proposed, quantitatively described. Furthermore, multi-factor method used to e...

The use of titanium and its alloys has increased in various industries recently, because of their superior properties of these alloys. Titanium alloys are generally classified as difficult to machine materials because of their thermo-mechanical properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio and low thermal conductivity. Laser Assisted Machining (LAM) improves the machinability of high strengt...

Specific to a problem of large vibro-impact aris ing from the cutting unit of the hard rock tunnel boring machine (TBM), a hybrid magnetic coupler based on soft start was proposed in this paper. The mathematical model for total eddy current losses of such a coupler was established by field-circuit method. Then, magnetic-thermal coupling simulation was performed by virtue of three-dimensional fi...

Smith, David L. MSIE, Purdue University, May 2015. Machining as a Mechanical Property Test Revisited. Major Professor: Srinivasan Chandrasekar. There is much need for data on mechanical behavior of metals at high strains and strain rates. This need is dictated by modeling of processes like forming and machining, wherein the material in the deformation zone is subjected to severe deformation con...

Considerable research has been conducted over recent decades on the role of non‑metallic inclusions and their link to the machinability of different steels. The present work reviews the mechanisms of steel fractures during different mechanical machining operations and the behavior of various non-metallic inclusions in a cutting zone. More specifically, the effects of composition, size, number a...

Well logs are principal sources of subsurface geological information. They provide significant information on mineralogical composition, texture, sedimentary structures and petrophysical properties such as porosity and permeability. By compiling data from various well logs, one can discriminate sedimentary units with comparable log characteristics. Sedimentary units with similar fluid flow and ...

Abstract Steel shots are suitable for abrasive waterjet rock cutting and recycling because of the high hardness magnetic properties steel. This study evaluated rock-cutting performance characteristics steel shot waterjet. The responses garnet were compared at same conditions. used was collected particle-size changes before reuse, its re-evaluated. Overall, yielded improvements in range 30–50% w...
