Multiflute drilling is an efficient means of making high accuracy holes without reaming. Because of the current lack of a comprehensive mathematical model for this kind of drilling, this paper presents a complete and simple method for designing multiflute drills. There are three special features of the proposed model. The first is that rotational axial-type cutting tools and disk-type abrasive ...

this investigation presents the effect of various parameters on foam stability and its rheological properties. the underlying idea of this experiment is generating of drilling foam with uniform bubbles. the main problem of foam using is controlling its stability during field application. the most important parameters which cause instability in foam are gravity drainage, gas diffusion and bubble...

BACKGROUND Microfracture and drilling are bone marrow-stimulation techniques that initiate cartilage repair by providing access to cell populations in subchondral bone marrow. This study examined the effect of hole depth and of microfracture versus drilling on subchondral bone repair and cartilage repair in full-thickness chondral defects. HYPOTHESES Repaired subchondral bone does not reconst...

SUMMARY The use of composite laminates in complex structures has increased significantly. However, there are still some issues when considering their use, mainly related with machining, leading to some difficulties and lack of acceptance. In this work, a methodology to evaluate drill geometry and feed rate based on thrust force and delamination extension is presented. INTRODUCTION For the past ...

Abstract— Due to the superior physical and mechanical properties Glass fiber-reinforced (GFRP) composite materials are very attractive for applications like aerospace and air craft structural components. This results a large number of research papers on machining of these composite laminates. Out of all the machining operations, most commonly used operation is drilling. However, drilling operat...

Because neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery often require the drilling of bones, this paper attempts to solve the problem of bone drilling. The goal is to realize a control system, which is able to drill with a contact drilling force and can automatically stop drilling at the moment of breaking through. In particular, both the de drilling mntor control and the feed rate control are driven by fo...

Bone drilling is widely used in orthopaedics and surgery; it is a technically demanding surgical procedure. Recent technological improvements in this area are focused on efforts to reduce forces in bone drilling. This study focuses on forces and a torque required for conventional and ultrasonically-assisted tool penetration into fresh bovine cortical bone. Drilling tests were performed with two...

In this research, finite element analysis of the conventional drilling and vibration assisted drilling is carried out. The ABAQUS software is employed for FE analysis. The Johnson-Cook models for both plastic deformation and damage are employed for FE simulation.The results of the FE analysis are then verified with experimental results in both conventional and vibration assisted drilling on Al ...

drilling fluid is the most important lifeline of the drilling operation, that main task is facilitate the cuttings removal of the drilling. there are varieties of drilling fluids such as sodium bentonite based-drilling fluid is called “mud” and drilling foam or surfactant based-drilling fluid is called “soap”. the present work aims are study on the modified drilling mud properties by using the ...

The aim of this investigation is to devise a robust detection method for drill bit break-through when drilling into long bones using an automated drilling system that is associated with mechatronic assisted surgery. This investigation looks into the effects of system compliance and inherent drilling force fluctuation on the profiles of drilling force, drilling force, drilling between successive...
