Machine tool chatter is a common occurrence in machining environments which can lead to undesirable part outcomes and can even cause damage to the machine. Chatter is a [...]

Machine spindle dynamics and (axis of rotation) error motions may vary as a function of spindle speed due to gyroscopic effects, changes in bearing preload, centrifugal f[...]

In this thesis, a combined approach based on the Finite Element (FE) and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) methods is proposed to model turning operations. The approa[...]
