ABSTRACT
A predictive machining theory that allows for the high strain-rate/ high temperature flow stress and thermal properties of the work material is described. It is shown how the theory can be used to predict cutting forces, temperatures, etc., in terms of cutting conditions and work material properties. Suggestions are made regarding the possible application of the theory to selecting optimum cutting conditions. Finally, some consideration is given to the future directions machining research might take.
