TWS, Georgia Tech Research Corporation, QuesTek Innovations, and Caron Engineering gathered last month to officially kick off a $1.56 million research project awarded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Technology Innovation Program (TIP). The NIST TIP is a merit-based, competitive program that supports, promotes, and accelerates innovation in the U.S. through high-risk, high-reward research in areas of critical national need. Full details
The project, titled Integrated Multiscale Modeling for Development of Machinable Advanced Alloys and Corresponding Component Machining Processes, will:
- link micromechanical constitutive models from alloy developers with physics-based machining models
- provide machinability feedback to alloy developers
- provide a high performance computing environment that will enable rapid turnaround for cutting tool design and toolpath development
- incorporate physics-based models within adaptive controller feedback
