Simulation machining of fiber-reinforced composites: A review

Fiber-reinforced composites/fiber-reinforced polymer is excellent material owning the performance of high strength, high toughness, light weight, good fatigue resistance and shock absorption, and strong designability. It has a wide range of application prospects. The reinforcing fiber makes the cutting of the composites far from easy. When machining of FRP, the high tool wear, defects on machined surface, and poor processing efficiency severely...
