Abstract
This paper provides the statistical analysis to obtain the functional dependence of the radial distribution parameter on grinding conditions by comparing the power spectra of the simulated and experimental profiles. A numerical technique to evaluate the power spectral density and generation of surface profile with all random possibilities of interaction of grooves is also presented. It is found that the radial distribution parameter is linearly related to table speed and depth of cut in fine grinding. Results indicate that the power spectra of simulated and experimental profiles are in close agreement.
