title = "Estimation of contact stiffness for grinding of hardened steel",
abstract = "A detailed characterization of the wheel/workpiece interface influencing the wheel/work deflections is important in the development of advanced grinding processes. One aspect of the interface, viz. the `contact stiffness' has been measured in the present study for the surface grinding of hardened steel with cubic boron nitride (CBN) and aluminum oxide grinding wheels. The true depth of material removal during horizontal-spindle, surface grinding was measured using surface profilometry; concurrently, the normal and tangential grinding forces were measured using a two component, piezoelectric dynamometer. The force and depth of cut measurements were combined with machine parameters to determine the contact stiffness of the wheel/work interface. The contact stiffness of a medium Al2O3 grinding wheel is found to be one-third of the value obtained for the fine Al2O3 and CBN grinding wheels investigated.",
