Ball-burnishing is a superfinishing process commonly applied to improve the surface
integrity (surface roughness, residual stress, microstructure, hardness) of a mechanical …

Accurate descriptions of workpiece behaviors are indispensable for achieving reliable
simulations of the cutting process. However, the material plastic constitutive models …

For 20 years now, the French machining activities have been federated around the
Manufacturing'21 group. The activities of this group cover all the issues related to …

Turning is one of the most widely used manufacturing processes in the industrial
environment and the need for performance requires numerical simulation to better …

Hard turning is becoming increasingly considered by industry as a potential substitute for
grinding. However, it is greatly hurdled by surface integrity problems such as tensile residual …

The fatigue performance of a metallic component is strongly correlated with several surface
integrity features (surface roughness, residual stresses, microstructure). It is commonly …

The fatigue behavior of components made of quenched and tempered steel alloys is of
elementary importance, especially in the automotive industry. To a great extent, the …

The paper is focused on the polymorphic transformations of selected steel types. Generally,
when creating CCT diagrams, the transformation temperature values Ac1 and Ac3 are …

This paper investigates the interaction between two passes on the final residual stress state
of a surface machined by turning. The interaction between a roughing and a finishing …

White layer (WL) formation in metal cutting is generally found to have negative effects on the
corrosion and fatigue life of machined components. Nowadays, the mechanism of the WL …
