Abstract:The demand for lighter and more performant aerospace and automotive components has resulted in a substantial surge in a recent interest in parts made of Fiber Metal Laminates (FMLs). For such components, drilling operations are crucial for permitting subsequent assembly. However, drillability of fiber metal laminates is critical due to the heterogeneous thermal and mechanical properties of the metal and composite that form the laminate. In this framework, the current research work aims at understanding how dri… Show more
