This is an "Engineering Research Series" title. One of the remarkable achievements of modern manufacturing techniques is the ability to achieve nano metre surface finishes. Ultraprecision machining based on single point diamond turning (SPDT) is a very important technique in the manufacture of high precision components where surface finish is critical. Complex optical surfaces, for example, can be produced without the need for post machining polishing. This book focuses on the aspect of modelling nano surface generation in ultra precision SPDT. Potential industrial applications in the prediction of surface quality, the process optimization, and precision mould manufacturing are also studied. The essential differences between single point diamond turning and conventional machining are described. The history and technology of single point diamond turning are presented and single chapters emphasize the related metrology and cutting mechanics. Important aspects of surface generation are also discussed. Features of the text are the sound approach, systematic mathematical modelling, and computer aided simulation of surface generation in the development of surfaces exhibiting nano surface qualities. Toppics covered include: Fundamentals of ultra precision diamond turning technology; Cutting mechanics and analysis of microcutting force variation; Mechanisms of surface generation; Characterization and modelling of nano surface generation; Computer aided simulation of nano surface generation; and, Diamond turning of aspheric optics. Based upon the extensive experience of the authors, "Surface Generation in Ultra precision Diamond Turning: Modelling and Practices" will be of interest to engineers, scientists, and postgraduate students.

Product Description:
In ultra-precision diamond turning, the quality of the machined surface that can be generated is important in assessing the performance of the machining system. The process of surface generation has attracted a lot of research interest. However, most of the work has been based on empirical studies. Relatively little theoretical and quantitative work has been reported. This book addresses the subject of the modelling of nano-surface generation in ultra-precision diamond turning as well as its industrial applications in the prediction of surface quality, the process of optimization and precision mould manufacturing. The authors' somewhat unconventional approach to the subject is one in which both mathematical rigour and engineering appeal can be maintained. This publication should be suitable for research scientists and engineers, postgraduate and senior undergraduate students working in the field of precision engineering, machining, surface metrology and materials science.
