Modeling the effect of compacted graphite iron microstructure on cutting forces and tool wear
Abstract
The characteristic mechanical (and physical) properties of compacted graphite iron (CGI) are contingent upon its unique microstructure. To model and simulate compacted graphite iron (CGI) in machining meaningfully, the metal's microstructure should not be overlooked throughout the process.In this work, modeling the microstructure of CGI in machining is implemented using a commercial general-purpose finite element package; ABAQUS/EXPLICIT (v …
