Modeling of temperature distribution in orthogonal cutting with dual-zone contact at rake face
In this study, an analytical model is developed in order to calculate the temperature distribution in orthogonal cutting with dual-zone contact at the rake face. The study focuses on heat generation at the primary shear zone and at the rake face. The material behavior at the primary shear zone is represented by Johnson-Cook constitutive equation whereas the contact at the rake face is modeled by sticking and sliding friction zones. This new temperature distribution model allows obtaining the maximum temperature at the rake face and helps determining two dimensional temperature distribution in the chip. The simulation results obtained from the developed model are also compared with experimental results where good agreement is observed
Analysis of mechanical behavior of termoplastic composites
This paper presents the effect of fiber orientation on the tensile, compression, impact, and flexuralproperties of glass fiber reinforced acrylic-based thermoplastic composites. The mechanical behaviorof three different composite plates, produced by the resin transfer molding (RTM) method, with0°/90°/45°, 0°/90° and ±45° glass fiber orientations were investigated by carrying out tensile,compression, three-point bending and Charpy impact tests. A Weibull distribution model wasimplemented to explain the variation in mechanical properties of the acrylic-based composite.According to Weibull analysis results with 63.2% probability, the highest tensile strength (561 MPa),compressive strength (293 MPa) and impact values (19.44 J) were obtained when the plate with0°/90° glass fiber orientation was tested, whereas the highest flexural strength was obtained when theplate with 0°/90°/45° was tested.Publisher's Versio
Analytical modeling of turn-milling process geometry, kinematics and mechanics
This paper presents an analytical approach for modeling of turn-milling which is a promising cutting process combining two conventional machining operations; turning and milling. This relatively new technology could be an alternative to turning for improved productivity in many applications but especially in cases involving hard-to-machine material or large work diameter. Intermittent nature of the process reduces forces on the workpiece, cutting temperatures and thus tool wear, and helps breaking of chips. The objective of this study is to develop a process model for turn-milling operations. In this article, for the first time, uncut chip geometry and tool-work engagement limits are defined for orthogonal, tangential and co-axial turn-milling operations. A novel analytical turn-milling force model is also developed and verified by experiments. Furthermore, matters related to machined part quality in turn-milling such as cusp height, circularity and circumferential surface roughness are defined and analytical expressions are derived. Proposed models show a good agreement with the experimental data where the error in force calculations is less than 10% for different cutting parameters and less than 3% in machined part quality analysis
Mechanical and thermal modeling of orthogonal turn-milling operation
Turn-milling is a relatively new machining technology which is performed for cutting of symmetrical or non-symmetrical rotational parts. The determination of cutting parameters in turn-milling is crucial for the sake of higher productivity. However, using experimental approach for determination of the parameters is not cost effective; hence it is important to develop predictive models, especially analytical models, for improved process outputs. In this study, cutting forces, part quality, MRR and cutting temperatures are modeled for orthogonal turn-milling operation. The developed models are verified by experiments. The results show that the eccentricity parameter in turn-milling has a significant effect on process outputs

Machining of a Zr-Ti-Al-Cu-Ni metallic glass
Abstract Zr 52:5 Ti 5 Cu 17:9 Ni 14:6 Al 10 metallic glass machining chips were characterized using SEM, X-ray diffraction and nano-indentation. Above a threshold cutting speed, oxidation of the Zr produces high flash temperatures and causes crystallization. The chip morphology was unique and showed the presence of shear bands, void formation and viscous flow

Experimental analysis on drilling of Al/Ti/CFRP hybrid composites
Carbon fiber reinforced composites (CFRP) have superior mechanical properties such as high strength/density ratio, and good damping ability. CFRP which is frequently used in parts in the aviation industry can also be single or stacked together with titanium and aluminum alloys. However, delamination could occur on the CFRP surfaces after drilling which leads to deterioration in mechanical properties. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of process parameters and stack order on cutting force, torque are investigated. The tests were carried out at three different drilling speeds and feed rates on a CNC vertical machine tool by using a solid carbide cutting tool. The results of hole quality indicate that the process outputs are significantly affected by process parameters and stack order. The force and torque values obtained at high drilling speeds and low feed rates are independent of the stack order. However, the stacking order is determined to be the most effective parameter for the thrust force and torque values. The force generated during the Ti/CFRP/Al stack in which the highest force value is approximately 50% higher than the lowest force which occurs on Al/Ti/CFRP stack. The surface roughness value measured during the Al/Ti/CFRP stack is approximately half of the other stack order.We are thankful for the support received from the Istanbul Technical University Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit.Publisher's Versio
