Machinability of advanced materials / edited by J. Paulo Davim. [electronic resource] Davim, J. Paulo. Building materials. Machine design. Materials Mechanical properties. TJ230 621.815 22 5.4. Machinability. Print version record. Machinability of Advanced Materials addresses the level of difficulty involved in machining a material, or multiple materials, with the appropriate tooling and cutting parameters. A variety of factors determine a material's machinability, including tool life rate, cutting forces and power consumption, surface integrity, limiting rate of metal removal, and chip shape. These topics, among others, and multiple examples comprise this research resource for engineering students, academics, and practitioners.
