3D Finite Element Model on Drilling of CFRP with Numerical Optimization and Experimental Validation

When drilling Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) materials, achieving acceptable hole quality is challenging while balancing productivity and tool wear. Numerical models are important tools for the optimization of drilling CFRP materials in terms of material removal rate and hole quality. In thi...
