Advanced Machining Processes of Metallic Materials : Theory, Modelling and Applications
This book addresses the present state and future development of machining technologies. It provides a comprehensive description of metal cutting theory, experimental and modelling techniques along with basic machining processes and their effective use in a wide range of manufacturing applications.
Machining Composites Materials
This book aims to provide the fundamentals and the recent advances in the machining of composite materials (polymers, metals and ceramics) for modern manufacturing engineering. The three parts of the book cover the machining of polymeric, metal and ceramic matrix composites. This book can be used as a text book for the final year of an undergraduate engineering course or for those studying
Machining of Stainless Steels and Super Alloys : Traditional and Nontraditional Techniques
Provides a comprehensive description for machining technologies of stainless steels and super alloys with consideration to current industrial applications.
Machining Technology for Composite Materials : Principles and Practice
. The traditional methods of turning, drilling and grinding are discussed in part one, which also contains chapters analysing cutting forces, tool wear and surface quality. Part two covers non-traditional methods for machining composite materials, including electrical discharge and laser machining, among others. Finally, part three contains chapters that deal with special topics in machining processes for composite materials, such as cryogenic machining and processes for wood-based composites.
Materials Forming and Machining : Research and Development
Materials forming techniques discussed in the book include extrusion, forging, rolling, drawing, sheet metal forming, microforming, hydroforming, thermoforming, and incremental forming, among others. In addition, traditional machining, non-traditional machining, abrasive machining, hard part machining, high speed machining, high efficiency machining, and micromachining are also explored, proving that forming technologies and machining can be applied to a wide variety of materials.
Precision Machining VI
The main aim of this collection of peer-reviewed papers is to promote the topics of precision manufacturing and machining practice, together with manufacturing research and education.
