Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kahwash, F., Shyha, I., & Maheri, A. (2015, July). Machining Unidirectional Composites using Single-Point Tools: Analysis of Cutting Forces, Chip Formation and Surface Integrity. Presented at Manufacturing Engineering Society International Conference, MES

The need for high quality machining of composite materials is rising due to the increased utilisation of these materials across several applications. This paper presents experimental findings of orthogonal cutting of unidirectional glass fibre reinfo...

Modelling of cutting fibrous composite materials: current practice (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kahwash, F., Shyha, I., & Maheri, A. (2014, June). Modelling of cutting fibrous composite materials: current practice. Presented at 3rd CIRP Global Web Conference, Naples, Italy

Using fibre reinforced polymers (FRP) is increasing across many industries. Although FRP are laid-up in the near-net shape, several cutting operations are necessary to meet quality and dimensional requirements. Modelling of cutting is essential to un...
