A Theory of Flank Wear on Ceramic Tools

该项目解决了一个科学和技术上的重要问题，即物理/机械/化学过程作为陶瓷刀具加工钢材后刀面磨损模式演变的潜在因素。他的这个项目的方法是在一种新的磨损表面描述中考虑磨损的热和非热方面的可分性。概述了构建理论的初步论点。理论的发展将得到一个平行的实验计划的支持，以鉴定磨损的各种热、化学和冶金参数。

The project deals with a scientifically and technically important problem, namely the physical/mechanical/chemical processes as the underlying factors in the evolution of flank wear pattern in machining of steels with ceramic tools. His approach of this project is to consider the separability of thermal and athermal aspects of wear in a novel description of worn surfaces. Preliminary arguments for constructing a theory is outlined. The development of the theory wil be buttressed by a parallel experimental program to qualify various thermal, chemical and metallurgical parameters of wear.
