In general, the direct experimental approach to study machining processes is expensive and time consuming, especially when a wide range of parameters are included: tool, geometry, materials, cutting conditions, etc. The aim of this study is to verify the effectiveness of finite element method for orthogonal cutting process by comparing the simulated cutting forces with measured results. Two commercialized finite element codes $AdvantEdge^{TM}$ and Deform-$2D^{TM}$ have been used to simulate the cutting forces in orthogonal cutting process. In this paper, estimated cutting and feed force components are compared with experimental results for different two materials. As a result, it has been found that FEM simulation is effective for understanding and predicting the orthogonal cutting process although some improvements on friction model and remeshing process are needed.

The objective of this study is to propose a new approach for modelling of burr formation process during orthogonal cutting when the tool exits the workpiece. This approach is based on the rigid-plastic finite element method combined with the ductile fracture criterion and the element kill method. This approach is applied to orthogonal cutting process to predict the fracture location and the fracture angle as well as the cutting force. To validate this approach, orthogonal cutting tests inside SEM(scanning electron microscope) at very low speed are carried out using A16061-T6 to observe the behavior of the material during the chip and the burr formation. The results of the experiment are compared with those of the finite element simulation.

The object of this paper is to evaluate the surface roughness using the experimental equation of surface roughness, which is developed in turning by an orthogonal array method. $L_9{3^4}$ orthogonal array method, one of fractional factorial design has been used to study effects of main cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut, on the surface roughness. And the analysis of variance (ANOVA)-test has been used to check the significance of cutting parameters. Using the result of ANOVA-test, the experimental equation of surface roughness, which consists of only significant cutting parameter - feed rate, has been developed. The coefficient of determination of this equation is 0.962.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the specific cutting energy characteristics during turning SM45C steel. Using the orthogonal array method the specific cutting energy has been predicted. And the significance of the equation is checked by ANOVA test. Predicted values of specific cutting energy are well concide with the measured ones. When the feed rate becaomes larger than 0.5mm/rev, predicted specific cutting energy increases.

The objective of this study is to develop a rigid-thermoviscoplastic finite element program for the analysis of orthogonal cutting process. Deformation of the workpiece material is considered as rigid-viscoplastic and the numerical solution is obtained from the coupled analysis bctween plastic deformation and temperature field, including treament of temperature dependent material properties. The chip and the burr formation are simulated for the non-steady state orthogonal cutting using the developed program. To validate the program the predicted results at chip and burr format~on stage are compared with the published ones. The case of isothermal cutting process is also considered to study the thermal effect on the machining process.

Machine operator and quality are affected by chip during cutting process to product machine parts. This paper presents a study of the influence of cutting conditions on the surface roughness obtained by turning using Taguchi method for safety of turning operator. In the machining of titanium alloy, high cutting temperature and strong chemical affinity between the tool and the work material are generated because of its low thermal conductivity and chemical reactivity. Therefore titanium alloys are known as difficult-to materials. An orthogonal array, the signal-to-noise ratio, the analysis of variance are employed to investigate the cutting characteristics of implant material bars using tungsten carbide cutting tools of throwaway type. Also Experimental results by orthogonal array are compared with optimal condition to evaluate advanced reliability. Required simulations and experiments are performed, and the results are investigated.

Chip breaker selection analysis, only being possible through experimental process, was obtained by a applied equation which used an orthogonal cutting model and a basic chip deformation. This equation could present an analysis of the chip breaking phenomena without the use of an actual experimetal method, and it was applied to computer simulation and proved the validity of theory through actual experiments. From these results, an efficient method for finding the optimum conditions of chip breaking was found through an optimized theory being applied to basic program. A finite element model for simulating chip breaking in orthogonal cutting was developed and discussed. By simulation the animation of chip breaking is observed in process on the computer screen.

In elliptical vibration cutting(EVC) where the cutting tool traces a micro-scale 2-dimensional elliptical trajectory, the kinematical and vibrational characteristics of the EVC device greatly affect cutting performance. In this study, kinematical and vibrational characteristics of an EVC device constructed with two orthogonally-arranged stacked piezoelectric actuators were investigated both analytically and experimentally. The step voltage was applied to the orthogonal EVC device and the associated displacements of the cutting tool were measured to assess kinematical characteristics of the orthogonal EVC device. To investigate the vibrational characteristic of the orthogonal EVC, sinusoidal voltage was applied to the EVC device and the resulting displacements were measured. It was found from experiments that coupling of displacements in the thrust and cutting directions and the tilt of the major axis of the elliptical trajectory exists. In addition, as the excitation frequency is in vicinity of resonant frequencies the distortion in the shape of the elliptical trajectory becomes greater and change in the rotation direction occurs. To correct the shape distortion of the elliptical trajectory, the shape correcting procedure developed for the parallel EVC device was applied for the orthogonal EVC device and it was shown that the shape correcting method successfully corrects distortion.

The purpose of this paper is to predict the cutting force, utilizing new model of double cutting edge which has normal rake angle and tool inclination angle. Changing side, back rake angle and side cutting edge angle in the new model. Three dimensional cutting force was obtained by the use of .eta. /c=i proposed by Stabler and energy method for three dimen- sional cutting force. Theoretical results has been calculated with development of optimization algorism which can be put into three dimensional theory, using the method of least square with orthogonal cutting data. IT is proved that three dimensional cutting force is to be predicted accurately only if orthogonal cutting force by equalizing theoretical result and experimental result has been calculated.
