This paper uses quasi-steady molecular statics model and diamond tool to carry out simulation temperature rise of nanoscale orthogonal cutting single-crystal silicon. It further qualitatively analyzes temperature field of silicon workpiece without considering heat transfer and considering heat transfer. This paper supposes that the temperature rise of workpiece is mainly caused by two heat sour...

In the friction stir welding (FSW) process, heat is generated by friction between the tool and the workpiece. This heat flows into the workpiece as well as the tool. The amount of heat conducted into the workpiece determines the quality of the weld, residual stress and distortion of the workpiece. The amount of the heat that flows to the tool dictates the life of the tool and the capability of ...

This paper focuses on the development of high temperatures in the cutting zone during high performance grinding. In order to identify the infl uence of grinding temperature on surface integrity, temperatures were measured in the workpiece surface layer under diff erent machining conditions. Beside this, under the same conditions, the surface layer properties of the workpiece material were deter...

In the present paper, an axisymmetric two-dimensional model for powder mixed electric discharge machining (PMEDM) has been developed using the finite element method (FEM). The model utilizes the several important aspects such as temperaturesensitive material properties, shape and size of heat source (Gaussian heat distribution), percentage distribution of heat among tool, workpiece and dielectr...

Inductive heating is a technological process where a steel workpiece is surrounded by an electromagnetic coil to which currents at various frequencies and time-varying amplitudes are applied. The amplitudes are considered as the controls and the objective is to heat the workpiece up to a desired temperature profile at the final time of the heating process. The workpiece is then quenched which d...

The vibration in the milling process plays a key role machining, which can significantly affect machining quality of workpiece. Some vibrations have negative influences on workpiece surface, while other improve stability. Therefore, it is critical to distinguish influence different types quality. A simulation method undeformed chip thickness considering presented this article, finite element mo...

5-axis machining operations bring new challenges for predicting cutting forces. Complex tool workpiece engagements and tool orientations make it difficult to adapt 3-axis process models for 5-axis operations. A new model is developed to predict cutting forces with arbitrary tool/workpiece engagement and tool feed direction. A discretization approach is used, in which the tool is composed of mul...

This paper investigates the feasibility to achieve grinding-hardening in a plunge cylindrical grinding process. To understand the mechanisms, a temperature-dependent finite element heat transfer model incorporating a triangular moving heat source was developed to describe the temperature field, thus to predict the thickness of the grinding-hardened layer. The analysis carried out included the v...

High-speed machining offers several advantages such as increased flexibility and productivity for discrete-part manufacturing. However, excessive heat generation and resulting high temperatures on the tool and workpiece surfaces in high-speed machining leads to a shorter tool life and poor part quality, especially if the tool edge geometry and cutting conditions were not selected properly. In t...
