“…The workpiece inflow and outflow surfaces, as well as the chip top surface, were modeled as Eulerian surfaces, and adaptive constraints were applied. For the tool, tungsten carbide was considered, and the linear elastic law was imposed [41]. The chemical composition of Ti6Al4V is given in Table 3.…”

The application of artificial intelligence and increasing high-speed computational performance is still not fully explored in the field of numerical modeling and simulation of machining processes. The efficiency of the numerical model to predict the observables depends on various inputs. The most important and challenging inputs are the material behavior of the work material and the friction conditions during the cutting operation. The parameters of the material model and the friction model have a decisive impact on the simulated results. To reduce the expensive experimentation cost that gives limited data for the parameters, an inverse methodology to identify the parameter values of those inputs is suggested to potentially have data of better quality. This paper introduces a novel approach for the inverse identification of model parameters by implementing the Efficient Global Optimization algorithm. In this work, a method relying on a complete automated Finite Element simulation-based optimization algorithm is implemented to inversely identify the value of the Johnson–Cook (JC) parameters and Coulomb’s friction coefficient correlatively, where the objective function is defined as minimizing the error difference between experimental and numerical results. The Ti6Al4V Grade 5 alloy material is considered as a work material, and the identified parameters sets are validated by comparing the simulated results with experimental results. The developed automation process reduces the computation time and eliminating human errors. The identified model parameters value predicts the cutting force as 169 N/mm (2% deviation from experiments), feed force as 55 N/mm (7% deviation from experiments), and chip thickness as 0.150 mm (11% deviation from experiments). Overall, the identified model parameters set improves the prediction accuracy of the finite element model by 32% compared with the best-identified parameters set in the literature.

“…At the same time, the performance of the composites depends not only on the component proportion but also on the phase composition, microstructure, and morphology of the powders and grains. Realistic microstructures can be used for modeling the elastoplastic performance of various grades of WC–Co composites and to obtain good agreement between simulated and experimental data [ 13 ]. Garcia, with co-authors [ 14 ], conducted an extensive review of the effect of microstructures on the properties of cemented carbides, which, in turn, depend on the fabrication process [ 15 , 16 ].…”

This paper presents the results of the experimental research on diamond-reinforced composites with WC–Co matrices enhanced with a ZrO2 additive. The samples were prepared using a modified spark plasma sintering method with a directly applied alternating current. The structure and performance of the basic composite 94 wt.%WC–6 wt.%Co was compared with the ones with ZrO2 added in proportions up to 10 wt.%. It was demonstrated that an increase in zirconia content contributed to the intense refinement of the phase components. The composite 25 wt.%Cdiamond–70.5 wt.%WC–4.5 wt.%Co consisted of a hexagonal WC phase with lattice parameters a = 0.2906 nm and c = 0.2837 nm, a cubic phase (a = 1.1112 nm), hexagonal graphite phase (a = 0.2464 nm, c = 0.6711 nm), as well as diamond grits. After the addition of zirconia nanopowder, the sintered composite contained structural WC and Co3W3C phases, amorphous carbon, tetragonal phase t-ZrO2 (a = 0.36019 nm, c = 0.5174 nm), and diamond grits—these structural changes, after an addition of 6 wt.% ZrO2 contributed to an increase in the fracture toughness by more than 20%, up to KIc = 16.9 ± 0.76 MPa·m0.5, with a negligible decrease in the hardness. Moreover, the composite exhibited an alteration of the destruction mechanism after the addition of zirconia, as well as enhanced forces holding the diamond grits in the matrix.

This study introduces a new wear model that can predict tool life in the milling process of Ti6Al4V using a cemented carbide tool. The model uses a finite element (FE) simulation to predict crack growth in the tool material microstructure. The FE model evaluates the crack propagation rate based on the real microstructure of the tool material, which is captured from microscopic images. To determine the normal and tangential forces operating on the flank face, an experimental procedure was developed based on three different flank wear widths. The FE model utilizes the elastic and fracture properties of tungsten carbide, and the elastic-plastic and fracture characteristics of cobalt binder to determine crack growth under the applied cutting forces. The crack propagation information combined with cutting conditions and the initial wear level are used to estimate the tool wear state. The developed model can predict tool life under different cutting conditions, tool geometries, and microstructure properties. Analysis of results showed that the error for the straight cuts was less than 6%, while for the complex cuts, it reached up to 20%. The accuracy of the model can be improved by extending the calibration test to higher levels of flank wear.
