Random Characteristics on Cutting Interpenetrating Network Composites

Abstract

Three kinds of dimensional simplified models were established according to the structure properties of interpenetrating network composites. The cutting process of INC with different structure parameters were calculated by finite element method. The random properties of cutting forces were also analyzed. It is shown that cutting forces would increase when reinforced phase is cut. Micro cracks are liable to be caused on interfaces between two phases. The structure parametersd、α、βhave great effects on cutting forces and cause random fluctuation which cause random properties for INC cutting process.
