... that these analytical expressions describe very well the results of numerical calculations at any Peclet numbers except for a very narrow range of Pe close to unity. A method of calculation of the cut shape (variation of the tilt angle inside the cut) is discussed. 10 01 2010 28 07 2010 02 11 2010 02...

... of high speed machining and more precisely in the orthogonal cutting of a low carbon steel XC18. The cutting speed varies between 22 ms −1 and 60 ms −1 . The experimental device allows one to visualize the evolution of the temperature field in the chip according to the cutting speed. The maximum...

...Michael F. Modest; Thomas M. Mallison Lsaers are emerging as a valuable tool for shaping and cutting hard and brittle ceramics. Unfortunately, the large, concentrated heat flux rates that allow the laser to efficiently cut and shape the ceramic also result in large localized thermal stresses...
