To investigate the machining mechanism of silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic materials, this study utilized sintered diamond tools to perform drilling and grinding simulations on the material and developed a drilling model for SiC ceramic materials. By analyzing parameters such as surface morphology, stress, and cutting force, the material removal mechanism of SiC ceramic materials was revealed, and the effects of drilling parameters on cutting force, torque, and residual stress were studied. Experimental results indicate that during the abrasive cutting process, the hard contact behavior of irregular abrasive grains significantly affects material removal, leading to failure forms such as chip collapse, hole and groove cracking, and crack propagation. With an increase in the feed rate of the abrasive grains, the drilling force shows a certain range of growth patterns. The axial force is positively correlated with spindle speed and feed rate, with the feed rate having a more significant impact on the magnitude of the axial force. Additionally, as the feed rate increases, the torque also increases. The radial residual stress mainly manifests as residual tensile stress. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The nano-cutting process of metallic glass (Zr52Cu20Ni16Ni12) processed at room temperature was studied by molecular dynamics simulation in this paper. At different cutting speeds, the microstructure of metallic glass, cutting force, strain morphology of cutting zone, temperature change of cutting zone and its influence on the quality of machined surface were analyzed. The simulation results show that the cutting speed has little effect on the content of Voronoi polyhedron in the cutting area of metallic glass. The cutting force increases significantly with the increase of cutting speed. The shape of strain deformation in the cutting zone of metallic glass material is significantly affected by the cutting speed, and the influence depth of strain is deepened with the increase of cutting speed. The increase of cutting speed has a significant effect on the temperature of the cutting zone of metallic glass, and the temperature of atoms in the cutting zone increases rapidly. The cutting speed has a significant impact on the surface quality of metal glass cutting. The surface quality of metal glass cutting becomes worse with the increase of cutting speed. In particular, the initial stage of plastic deformation in metal glass cutting process is simulated and analyzed, and the formation and evolution of its shear band and free volume are simulated and studied.
