Vortex machining is a unique localized material removal process in which footprints of several nanometer in depth are obtained. It employs a resonating quartz tuning fork and a fiber attached on its upper tine. When submerged in a layer of slurry,...
In this work, a two-dimensional finite element model of orthogonal machining ofAISI 1045 steel is developed using the commercial non-linear finite element packageABAQUS. The material behavior is described using the Johnson-Cook constitutivelaw. Fu...
The use of biomaterials as drug delivery systems (DDS) eliminates the adverse side effects of systemic drug administration. Silica-based bioceramics have been widely studied as DDS and demonstrated a unique ability for controlled drug release loca...
