Abstract:The present study examined the effects of drilling parameters such as spindle speed (N), feed rate (f), diameter of the tools (d) and drill geometry such as twist drills (HSS-TiN) and brad & spur drills (BSD) used on delamination damage in a biosandwich structure consisting of an epoxy matrix reinforced with bidirectional jute fibres and cork (JFCE). Response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) were exploited to evaluate the influence and interaction of the cutting parameters on… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
