Abstract
The ductile/brittle transition depth (critical depth of cut) in brittle materials is
dependent on cutting conditions and material properties such as crystallographic orientation of
the material. The exact physics associated to this ductile behavior and formation of critical
depth of cut is still largely unknown. Therefore a probabilistic approach in determining the
optimal critical depth for diamond turning of a brittle material is investigated.
