In the present paper, acoustic emission was studied in honing experiments obtained with different abrasive densities, 15, 30, 45 and 60. In addition, 2D and 3D roughness, material removal rate and tool wear were determined. ...

Honing processes provide a special cross-hatch pattern to the internal surface of cylinders that favors oil flow. However, along honing operation the abrasive grains wear out and lose their ability to cut material. The ...

Hemispherical hip ceramic prostheses require certain degree of porosity on their external surface so as to fix them by means of osteointegration. This can be achieved with porous mesostructures. In contrast, internal surface ...
