Machining of Polymer Matrix Composites will serve as an indispensable reference/source book for process design, tool and production engineers in composite manufacturing. This book provides the reader with a comprehensive scientific treatment of the theory of machining as it applies to fiber reinforced polymer composites, covers the latest technical advances in the area of machining and tooling and discusses the applications of fiber reinforced polymer composites as they are used in the aircraft and automotive manufacturing industries. Discusses the applications of fiber reinforced polymer composites as they are usedin the aircraft and automotive manufacturing industries. Addresses both man-made fiber reinforced polymers (carbon FRP, glass FRP, Aramid FRP and natural (wood) fiber reinfced polymers (medium density fiberboard, particleboard, wood fiber reinforced plastics, etc.) INDICE: An Introduction to Polymer Matrix Composites. Kinematics of Machining. Mechanics of Chip Formation. Tool Materials and Tool Wear. Traditional Machining Processes. Nontraditional Machining Processes. Inspection and Damage Evaluation. Machining of Wood and Wood-Based Composites. Environmental Effects and Safety.
