Accuracy and reliability of the numerical results is one of the most important challenges in
the scientific community for finite element modeling (FEM) of cutting processes. It becomes
more essential in machining of difficult-to-cut materials such as nickel-based alloys where
high thermo-mechanical loads are induced into the workpiece. In this paper, new strategies
were adopted to improve accuracy of FE modeling of cutting process of Inconel718
superalloy. Firstly, a novel hybrid strategy was established to simultaneously calibrate …
