Mechanics and dynamics of machining advanced composite materials

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Composites offer an outstanding strength to weight ratio and fatigue and corrosion resistance, therefore their application has grown tremendously in a broad spectrum of products—from consumer to aerospace. To accommodate the surge in the application of composites, the industry demands high productivity manufacturing methods to convert the material into the final product. Machining operations such as drilling, milling and trimming are usually a critical step in manufacturing composites. These operations are commonly used in finishing and assembly stages and thus poor machining conditions may lead to scraping of the finished product.
