Framework and illustration of the reviewed advanced numerical simulations of materials-oriented diamond cutting (IMAGE)
Caption
The recent advances in advanced numerical simulations for traditional and field-assisted diamond cutting of a variety of materials, including metallic materials with anisotropy cutting behavior, hard brittle materials with brittle-to-ductile transition characteristics, and composite materials with synergetic cutting behavior are systematically summarized. In particular, molecular dynamics simulation and finite element simulation are employed to investigate representative machining response involved in ultra-precision diamond cutting, such as the anisotropic dislocation slip, thermos-mechanical coupling tool-chip friction and tool wear, phase transformation and cracking associated with cracking event. Ultimately, the ultra-smooth surface of various materials can be realized by using ultra-precision diamond cutting technique based on the understanding of diamond cutting mechanisms.
