Machinability of Advanced Materials 

Machinability of Advanced Materials addresses the level of
difficulty involved in machining a material, or multiple materials,
with the appropriate tooling and cutting parameters. A
variety of factors determine a material’s machinability,
including tool life rate, cutting forces and power consumption,
surface integrity, limiting rate of metal removal, and chip shape.
These topics, among others, and multiple examples comprise this
research resource for engineering students, academics, and
practitioners.
