Prediction of cutting forces in machining of Metal Matrix Composites

This paper presents a mechanics model for predicting the forces of cutting aluminium-based SiC/Al2O3 particle reinforced MMCs. The force generation mechanism was considered to be due to three factors: (a) the chip formation force, (b) the ploughing force, and (c) the particle fracture force. The chi...
