Waterjet machining has attracted great attention in the conditions of hard-to-machine
materials, microstructures, or complicated industrial components, and it has become well …

With the increasing demands to generate complex parts on ever-more advanced, but difficult-
to-cut materials, a group of technologies, generically called High Energy Fluid Jet Machining …

Abrasive water jets (AWJs) are finding growing applications for machining a wide range of
difficult-to-machine materials such as titanium alloys, stainless steel, metal matrix and fibre …

In this study, a two-dimensional SPH-FEM/DEM coupled model is developed to investigate
rock breaking behavior under water jet impact based on the LS-DYNA software, where the …

End-of-life vehicle (ELV) recycling has considerable potential value and a wide range of
applications. Plastics form an increasing percentage of the total weight of automobiles as …

Ice, a quasi-brittle material with a complex crystal organization and found ubiquitously in
nature, undergoes an impact fragmentation process that implies a rich physical mechanism …

Ice breaking has become one of the main problems faced by ships and other equipment
operating in an ice-covered water region. New methods are always being pursued and …

The cutting performance of an abrasive water jet mainly depends on the abrasive particle's
velocities and impact angles as well as the physical properties of the particles and the …

In dealing with fluid impact and large deformation problems by traditional Lagrange grid,
calculation failure often happens due to grid distortion. An abrasive water jet machining …

Abrasive waterjet machining (AWJM) is a non-conventional process. The mechanism of
material removing in AWJM for ductile materials and existing erosion models are reviewed …
