The self-excited vibration, called chatter, is one of the main limitations in metal removal
processes. Chatter may spoil the surface of the part and can also cause large reduction in …

Among the diverse challenges in machining processes, chatter has a significant detrimental
effect on surface quality and tool life, and it is a major limitation factor in achieving higher …

This book presents the recently introduced and already widely referred semi-discretization
method for the stability analysis of delayed dynamical systems. Delay differential equations …

Industrial robots are promising and competitive alternatives for performing machining
operations. A relatively low stiffness is the major constraint for the widespread use of …

A unified cutting mechanics model is developed for the prediction of cutting forces in milling,
boring, turning and drilling operations with inserted tools. The insert and its orientation on a …

The stability of high-speed machining operations determines the reliability of machine tools
and the quality of machined parts. Chatter-free cutting conditions are difficult to predict as …

The paper presents expressions for semi-empirical mechanistic identification of specific
cutting and edge force coefficients for a general helical end mill from milling tests at an …

The paper reports on a new integrated methodology for modelling and prediction of surface
errors caused by deflection during machining of low-rigidity components. The proposed …

Virtual manufacturing systems can provide useful means for products to be manufactured
without the need of physical testing on the shop floor. As a result, the time and cost of part …

This paper presents a discrete-time modeling of dynamic milling systems. End mills with
arbitrary geometry are divided into differential elements along the cutter axis. Variable pitch …
