Special Issue on Advances in the Machining of Aerospace Materials
Résumé
The aerospace industries are driving the use of advanced materials such as titanium, nimonic alloys, inconal alloys, composites and demand for large monolithic parts. Its properties of the materials make them attr active and difficult to machine. Especially problems such as rapid tool wear and chatter. The special issue on machining of aerospace materials provide an in depth analysis towards machining titanium and composite materials. The papers published have been selected after the peer review process. The papers include machining of titanium alloys, drilling of polymer matrix composites, electric discharge machining of polymer matrix composites and advanced materials. The guest editors and the editor would like to thank all the authors and referees for their time and unbiased evaluations of these articles.
