Investigation of the microstructure change due to phase transition in nanosecond pulsed laser processing of diamond (2017)
Journal Article
Cadot, G. B., Thomas, K., Best, J. P., Taylor, A., Michler, J., Axinte, D., & Billingham, J. (2018). Investigation of the microstructure change due to phase transition in nanosecond pulsed laser processing of diamond. Carbon, 127, 349-365. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carbon.2017.10.030

Experiments and theory are employed to investigate the thermal damage induced by infra-red nanosecond pulses in atmospheric air into a boron-doped diamond target. Micro-Raman spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis and surface t...

Towards understanding the cutting and fracture mechanism in ceramic matrix composites (2017)
Journal Article
Gavaldà Díaz, O., & Axinte, D. A. (2017). Towards understanding the cutting and fracture mechanism in ceramic matrix composites. International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture, 118-119, 12-25. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmachtools.2017.03.008

Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) are increasingly used for the manufacture of high-value parts for several industries such as the aerospace, nuclear and automotive. Nevertheless, their heterogenic, anisotropic and brittle nature make difficult to cha... Read More about Towards understanding the cutting and fracture mechanism in ceramic matrix composites.

A novel cutting tool design to avoid surface damage in bone machining (2017)
Journal Article
Liao, Z., Axinte, D. A., & Gao, D. (2017). A novel cutting tool design to avoid surface damage in bone machining. International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture, 116, 52-59. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmachtools.2017.01.003

With its anisotropic structure, bone machining occurs as shear/serrated cutting mechanisms at low values of uncut chip thickness while at high values it results in fracture cutting mechanisms which lead to significant tissues damages; hence, utilisin...

On a stochastically grain-discretised model for 2D/3D temperature mapping prediction in grinding (2017)
Journal Article
Li, H. N., & Axinte, D. A. (2017). On a stochastically grain-discretised model for 2D/3D temperature mapping prediction in grinding. International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture, 116, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmachtools.2017.01.004

Excessive grinding heat might probably lead to unwanted heat damages of workpiece materials, most previous studies on grinding heat/temperature, however, assumed the wheel-workpiece contact zone as a moving band heat source, which might be not approp...
