Atomic Scale Machining of Surfaces

Molecular dynamic simulations of machining at the atomic scale can reveal a significant amount of information regarding the behavior of machining and grinding processes that cannot be explained easily using classical theory or experimental procedures. This chapter explains how the use of molecular dynamic simulations can be applied to the many problems associated with machining and grinding at the meso, micro, and nanoscales.
