Theoretical considerations of the machining process and its phenomena, establishing its regularities as a prerequisite for solving problems of manufacturing engineering. Establishing the logic of theoretical modeling of machining real physical processes and development of program support for animation and simulation.

The student should acquire knowledge and develop skills needed for advanced critical and self-critical approach to Theory and Simulation of the Machining Process. Solving of concrete problems by using scientific methods and procedures.

Basics of the machining process theory, Basic elements of the machining process, Material properties, Engineering materials, technology of powder metallurgy, Basics of shaping by plastic deformation, Software development for simulation and animation: cutting resistance in turning, drilling, boring, peripheral and face milling, heat in the cutting zone, grinding process, surface roughness, optimization of the turning and milling processes, machining process dynamics, Special processes and technologies.

Practical teaching involves laboratory work in Laboratory for machine tools and machining systems, and seminar work writing. Planned experiments are carried out in the Laboratory with finishing the reports. These reports are a part of the seminar work.

MSc degree, preferably in technical sciences.

Laboratory machines: lathe, planer, radial drill, milling machine, Pfauter milling machine, grinding machine, machining centers, presses, robots, laboratory for FTS, machining processes and tools.
