FLOREZ-GARCIA, Luis Carlos; GONZALEZ-ROJAS, Hernán Alberto  and  CASADO-LOPEZ, Ramón. A Cylindrical Surface Topographic Simulation by a Vibration Assisted Cutting Machine. Rev. Fac. ing. [online]. 2014, vol.23, n.37, pp.55-64. ISSN 0121-1129.

The Vibration Assisted Machining (VAM) is a technique used to provide a better surface finishing, a reduction in the cutting forces, and an increased tool life.To predict a cylinder topographic geometric shape with VAM, there has been built a program, that simulates the surface topography, in order to make sweepings on the frequency vibration, to observe the surface parameters Sa, St, Ra, Rt and the topography'sbehavior. It has been able to observe, that the surface parameters have a periodic behavior, characterized by a dimensionless frequency, equal to 1.
