Investigation of critical material removal transitions in compliant machining of brittle ceramics

Compliant machining processes, such as bonnet polishing, can be used on hard and brittle ceramic materials such as alumina and silicon carbide, to produce ultra-precise surfaces with sub-micron form accuracy and nanometric surface roughness. However, a comprehensive understanding of the removal mech...
