The dynamic stability of the milling process is investigated through a single degree of freedom mechanical model. Two alternative analytical methods are introduced, both based on finite dimensional discrete map representations of the governing time periodic delay-differential equation. Stability charts and chatter frequencies are determined for partial immersion upand down-milling, and for full...

In recent years, a lot of research has been done in the field of producing soft magnetic nano composites by means of mechanical alloying. These materials indicate more electrical resistance and permeability in comparison with soft magnetic composites (SMCs). In this research, reduction of silicothermal mixed powder (Nickel-oxide, Silicon and Iron) was carried out by mechanical alloying to form ...

Mechanical alloying has recently attracted considerable attention as researchers strive to enhance nanocomposite properties and extend their utility. The process can be performed at room temperature and homogeneous nanocomposite powders can be produced. In this paper, we investigated the effect of different ball milling parameters and operating conditions (milling time, ball size, processing co...

The reversible cycling of CaO adsorbents to CaCO(3) for high-temperature CO(2) capture is substantially improved by mechanical treatment. The mechanical milling intensity and conditions of grinding (e.g., wet vs. dry, planetary vs. vibratory milling) were determined to be the main factors that control the effectiveness of the mechanochemical synthesis to enhance the recycling stability of the s...

Mechanical alloying of Ti-Si and NiTi was performed by high-energy ball milling at ambient temperature. The structural and compositional evolutions during mechanical alloying were investigated. Results showed that the crystallite size of mechanically alloyed Ti-Si and Ni-Ti powders decreased with increasing milling time and the steady-state crystallite size was approximately 10 nm. The mechanic...

Production of nanostructured aluminum matrix composite powder by high energy ball milling is investigated. Scanning electron microscopy analysis as well as the tap and green density measurements were used to optimize the milling time needed for the completion of the mechanical milling process. Also, we studied the particles morphology and size distribution change with milling time and its corre...

Milling is the mechanical process of removing material from a piece of stock through the use of a rapidly spinning circular milling tool in order to form some desired geometric shape. An important problem in computer-aided design and manufacturing is the automated generation of efficient milling plans for computerized numerically controlled (CNC) milling machines. Among the most common milling ...

High-energy mechanical milling has been performed on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) at ambient and cryogenic temperatures, as well as on polyisoprene (PI) and poly(ethylene-alt-propylene) (PEP) at cryogenic conditions only. Milling conducted at ambient temperature has a substantially greater impact on the molecular characteristics of PMMA than milling at cryogenic temperatures. An increase in...

Nanocrystalline magnesium hydride powder was synthesized by mechanical milling of MgH2 in a planetary ball mill for various times. The effect of MgH2 structure, i.e. crystallite size, lattice strain, particle size and specific surface area on the hydrogen desorption properties was investigated. A single peak of hydrogen desorption was observed for as-received powder, exhibiting an average parti...
