Minimum Quantity Lubrication Machining Process Analysis and Analytical Modeling

This book focuses on the effect of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) on the mechanical and thermal history, which will mainly determine the quality of the machined components. By analyzing the details of the lubrication and cooling effects in MQL machining, the book provides readers with an accurate and fast way to predict the residual stress of machined components. These process analyses and quality prediction will be beneficial for understanding the MQL machining theory and its widespread application in industry.
