Optical microstructures are increasingly applied in several fields, such as optical systems,
precision measurement, and microfluid chips. Microstructures include microgrooves …

This keynote paper aims at matching the supply of research results with the industrial
demands in hard cutting and grinding. The capability profiles of the processes are …

The formation mechanisms and properties of white layers produced in machining of
hardened steels are not clearly understood to date. In particular, detailed analysis of their …

This paper presents a finite element model for white layer formation in orthogonal machining
of hardened AISI 52100 steel under thermally dominant cutting conditions that promote …

Machined surface integrity of bearing rings is often the main concern for the bearing
manufacturers as it affects their fatigue life. The present study investigates the surface …

To understand the effects of cutting the surface integrity is an important goal to control the
quality of a work piece. The current paper summarizes an extensive experimental study of …

Compared with grinding, hard turning is competitive in many cases, with substantial benefits.
However, hard turning applications are not preferred, due to the existence of the process …

In this paper, the relationship between cutting parameters and machined surface integrity in
the hard milling of 4340 alloy steel using minimum quantity lubricant is investigated. Milling …

This paper deals with monitoring of thermally induced damage during grinding in case-
hardened surfaces via magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) combined with other non …

The hardening of legislation in favor of socio-environmental preservation and the
sustainable focus of industry are changing the current manufacturing methods, among which …
