Determination of Nanoindentation Behavior of HAZ on Glass Material Machined via ECSM Process through Simulation Approach.

The current study develops a numerical model to investigate the nanoindentation behavior of heat-affected zones (HAZ) on glass material produced via the electrochemical spark machining (ECSM) method. Initially, microchannels were created using the ECSM method on soda-lime glass. Following that, a nanoindentation test was conducted to quantify the Young's modulus and hardness of the glass sample.

Energy Channelization Analysis of Rough Tools Developed by RM-MT-EDM Process during ECSM of Glass Substrates.

In the present work, the effect of tool surface roughness on energy channelization behavior was analyzed during the fabrication of micro holes by an electrochemical spark machining (ECSM) process. In this study, rough tools were fabricated by a rotary mode multi tip electric discharge machining (RM-MT-EDM) process. The electrical characterization was also carried out to investigate the electric field intensity over the surface of tool electrode, and it was found that the use of rough tools improves the electric field intensity by 265.
