Grinding is one of the most widely used material removal methods at the end of many
process chains. Grinding force is related to almost all grinding parameters, which has a …

Grinding is a key technology for difficult-to-machine materials, eg, super alloys, ceramics,
and composites. The material removal behavior is dependent on almost all grinding …

Rail grinding is widely used as a technique to both reprofile the railhead in case of wear and
to remove damage. However, grinding may lead to surface burning and the formation of a …

The study focuses on the removal behaviours of rail material during grinding at different
forward speeds, which provides a better understanding for improving the grinding efficiency …

A fundamental optimization of a grinding process usually involves expensive equipment and
experimental matrices covering a large parameter space. To aid this often cumbersome …

Abrasive material and hardness of grinding wheel are two important factors affecting the
grinding efficiency and quality. In this study, two kinds of abrasive grains (ie, zirconium …

Fatigue crack is one of the most common defects in railway system. Fatigue crack growth
may lead to wheel and rail failure and damage to other components. In this paper, by …

Facing grinding by abrasive wheel is the most widely used method to maintain the rails. The
wear of abrasive wheel is inevitable and influences the grinding performance significantly …

Rail grinding is a widely-used method to eliminate surface damages on railway tracks. The
grinding chips are closely related to the grinding parameters and the grinding quality …

The effect of abrasive grain size on the material removal performances of the grinding
surface was studied by theoretical modeling and grinding experiments. The results indicted …
