Description

Cutting is a ubiquitous process in most engineering disciplines, the mechanics of which (toughness, fracture, deformation, plasticity, tearing, grating, chewing) have wide-ranging implications for engineers as well as medics, biologists, archaeologists, food technologists, and others. The Science and Engineering of Cuttingsecond edition has been updated to include new developments in the mechanics of cutting introducing topics such as friction modeling, oblique cutting of polymers, nano-sectioning, ultraprecision cutting, new methods for determining the fracture toughness of welds and glued joints, recent developments in finite element simulations of cutting, and much more. The book also looks at new applications, such as improvements in the design of wood cutting machinery, body armor, and the employment of greater 'slice-push' methods in food-cutting machinery. Covers the processes and techniques of cutting in metals and non-metals Features new applications and case studies Looks afresh at nanomachining, finite element simulations, blunt tooling and more Updated to include insight on the role of toughness in wear of solids, special measures required when cutting soft solids owing to their floppiness, the use of cutting to determine fracture toughness of very ductile polymers, and much more
