Abstract 6H-SiC is a typical hard-brittle material, and the challenge of performing ductile-
regime machining in diamond cutting necessitates an in-depth understanding of the brittle …

In this paper, a simulation technique to predict the material removal profile is developed for a
disc-shaped compliant polishing tool which is commonly used in robotic polishing. The …

The mechanisms of ductile–brittle transition and surface/subsurface crack damage during
the grinding of plasma–sprayed alumina ceramic coatings were investigated in an …

A finite element model (FEM) of single-grain surface grinding of SiC has been established to
understand the effects of the cutting-edge radius and grinding wheel speed on SiC chip …

Despite great efforts have been made to understand the machining mechanism of brittle
materials, few numerical models are available to describe the brittle-ductile transition (BDT) …

Cold spray involving ceramic particle and metal substrates has been investigated using
systematic numerical simulations, considering dynamic fragmentation of the ceramic …

The ability to predict the critical depth for ductile-mode grinding of brittle materials is
important to grinding process optimization and quality control. The traditional models for …

To explore the cutting characteristics of single fiber, the cutting process of Ti-6Al-4 V titanium
alloy by single cBN-WC-10Co fiber was simulated, and the fiber size was given as 6 mm in …

Aiming at the unclear knowledge of the effect of the axial grain separation distance ΔZ v on
the interference, the double diamond grains grinding tests and finite element (FE) …

Brittle materials are prone to brittle fracture which is a primary mechanism of material
removal in grinding process. Subsurface damage (SSD) strongly affects the quality of …
