A Study on the Microcutting for Configuration of Tools using Molecular Dynamics

분자동력학을 이용한 공구형상에 따른 미소절삭현상에 관한 연구

Recently, the analysis of microcutting with submicrometer depth of cut is tried to get a more high quality surface product, but to get a valuable result another method instead of conventional finite element method must be considered because finite elment method is impossible for a very small focused region and mesh size. As the altermative method, Molecular Dynamics or Statics is suggested and acceoted in the field of microcutting, indentation and crack propagation. In this paper using Molecuar Dynamics simulation, the phenomena of microcutting with subnanometer chip thickness is studied and the cutting mechanism for tool edge configuration is evaluated. As the result of simulation the atomistic chip formation is achieved.
