“…Many researchers have discussed the challenges encountered in machining composite materials by addressing four topics: (1) optimization of the cutting parameters [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ], (2) machined surface quality [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ], (3) cutting tool life [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ], (4) heat partition, and (5) thermal effects [ 25 , 26 , 27 ]. Indeed, each of these topics treats a side of the possible damage occurring in composite material work-pieces as well as cutting tools during machining.…”
