Format:
Conference.
Purpose:
This workshop/conference series, sponsored by the International Academy for Production Engineering (CIRP), began in 1998 with the first workshop held in Atlanta, GA, USA. The primary objectives of the conference are to bring together professionals from industry and academia to present and discuss recent advances in modeling of cutting processes and machining operations, and to provide an opportunity for participants to network.
Topics:

The conference program will cover formal sessions devoted to:

  • Modeling of 2D and 3D machining processes
  • High-speed cutting and hard machining
  • Tribological aspects during cutting
  • Precision and micro-machining
  • Dynamics and stability of machining operations
  • Measurement, monitoring, and diagnostics of machining operations
  • Non-conventional modeling and optimization of machining by artificial intelligence methods, neural networks, genetic algorithms, evolutionary algorithms, etc.
