On modelling coolant penetration into the microchannels at the tool-workpiece interface (2022)
Journal Article

A network of microchannels is formed at the interface between the cutting tool and the workpiece during machining due to their rough surface structures. The penetration of coolant into these microchannels has a great effect on the machined surface qu...

The effect of interstitial fluid on the machining behaviour of cortical bone (2022)
Journal Article

Bone machining research is usually conducted ex-vivo with standard laboratory equipment, implying mostly that the cutting process takes place in dry state. While these studies are useful for understanding the bone cutting process, they cannot represe... Read More about The effect of interstitial fluid on the machining behaviour of cortical bone.

On the importance of interface stability in cellular automata models: Planar and dendritic solidification in laser melted YSZ (2022)
Journal Article

Laser-processing technologies are often applied to enhance the properties of ceramics, such as laser glazing of Yttria Stabilised Zirconia (YSZ). However, very limited attention was paid to the solidification phenomena and mechanisms of YSZ. In this...

Predictive model of the surface topography for compliant grinding of brittle materials (2022)
Journal Article

During uneven and time-dependent compliant grinding of brittle materials, the surface topography is difficult to predict as ductile and brittle regions are coupled due to compliance occurring in macro/micro tool-workpiece contact. This paper proposed... Read More about Predictive model of the surface topography for compliant grinding of brittle materials.

Study of deterministic surface micro-texture generation in ultra-precision grinding considering wheel oscillation (2022)
Journal Article

Ultra-precision grinding is crucial for manufacturing high-end optics and molds, while the unbalanced wheel vibration is inevitable and becomes even more critical in surface generation, which resulted in undesired waviness and micro-texture on the gr...
