“…Later, additions have been made in this model including cutting forces and wear calculation (Bouzakis and König, 1981;Bouzakis, 1980;Gutmann, 1988;Joppa, 1977). Another simulation code introduced by Michalski (Michalski, 2009;Michalski and Skoczylas, 2008a;Michalski and Skoczylas, 2008b) used a CAD environment in order to produce the geometry of flanks which were machined by means of gear hobbing. A mathematical modeling of the process, where chip characteristics as well as the flank geometry are calculated, was also presented by Vedmar (Vedmar, 2010;Vedmar, Andersson and Stahl, 2009).…”
