Atomistic and Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Depth of Cut on Diamond Cutting of Cerium

The ultra-precision diamond cutting process exhibits strong size effects due to the ultra-small depth of cut that is comparable with the cutting edge radius. In the present work, we elucidate the underlying machining mechanisms of single crystal cerium under diamond cutting by means of molecular dyn...
