In modern manufacturing, there has been strong renewed interest in high-efficiency machining, while use of advanced materials has increased due to their special mechanical and physical properties. Advanced materials have replaced conventional materials in various fields of application including aeronautical, aerospace, automotive, biomechanical, mechanical and other industries. As a result of these properties and potential applications, there exists an urgent need to understand questions associated with the machinability of these materials. IJMMM addresses both machining and machinability of materials.
Topics covered include
- Machining processes: turning, drilling, milling, grinding
- Mechanics of cutting, chip formation
- Cutting forces, cutting temperatures
- Cutting tool material, coatings, tool wear
- Surface finish, integrity of surfaces
- Tribology in metal cutting
- Hard turning, minimal lubrication; high speed machining
- Nontraditional machining processes: laser, EDM, ECM, USM, water jet cutting
- Precision machining, micro/nanomachining
- Vibration/acoustic emission techniques
- Machinability of materials: metallic/non-metallic/composite materials
- Design of experiments: Taguchi methods, response surface methodology, etc.
- Machining simulation: FEM models, etc.
- Optimisation: genetic algorithms, neural networks, etc.
- Intelligent machining, integrated manufacturing systems
Objectives
The objectives of the IJMMM are to establish a channel of communication and to disseminate knowledge between academic/research institutions and practical industrial applications.
Readership
Academics; researchers; engineers; professionals in machining and related industries.
Contents
IJMMM publishes original papers; research papers; review papers; technical papers, technical notes; short communications; discussion on papers; case studies.
