ACP (amorphous calcium phosphate) and DCPD (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, or Brushite) powders were high energy dry ball milled at a 1:1 ratio for 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, or 24 hours to produce a variety of powders for use as calcium phosphate cements (CPC). A 1:1 blend of powders not subjected to milling was used as baseline material (control). Physicochemical and mechanical characterization was perf...

Milling time is one of the most important factors for achieving the desired particle size of milled powders. Generally, the particle size of milled powders decreases with increasing milling time. However, long milling time results in agglomeration of small particles for some powders [9]. The using of the NDT method gives lot information about these microstructures in particular the magnetic NDT...

This paper presents the development of a cutting force model for end milling process under various cutting conditions and the tool wear is measured by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).This novel approach combines the concept of experimental design and finite element modeling of the cutting process which allows for a fairly accurate prediction of cutting forces with a significantly lower compu...
