Article Synopsis
  • * The article discusses four numerical models to study micro-cutting of hardened steel, including Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics and three types of finite element models, aiming to understand how tool edge radius affects cutting forces, chip shape, and stress distribution.
  • * Results show that both the Finite Element (Lagrangian) and SPH models align well with experimental data for size effects, though each has limitations, and the paper concludes by comparing all four models to identify the best approach for modeling micro-cutting processes.
