ABRASIVE TECHNOLOGY
Current Development and Applications I

Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Abrasive Technology (ABTEC '99)
Brisbane, Australia 22 - 24 November 1999

edited by Jun Wang (Queensland University of Technology), William Scott (Queensland University of Technology) & Liangchi Zhang (University of Sydney)

Abrasive technology is becoming increasingly important in precision manufacturing. This volume contains more than 70 refereed technical papers contributed by worldwide academic researchers and industrial practitioners, on the latest development in abrasive technology. Specifically, it covers the mechanics and mechanisms of abrasive processes as well as the technologies and applications related to abrasive jet machining, nano-machining, grinding, polishing, horning and lapping. It also includes topics on high-speed machining, eco-machining and laser micro-machining technologies. The discussion on the practical applications of abrasive technology and the associated theories makes this book useful for academic researchers and industrial practitioners.
