  title = {Cutting force prediction in gear shaping process using  discrete solid modeller},
  abstract = {<p>This paper describes a summary of the research published in [1]. Gear shaping is the&nbsp;primary manufacturing method for creating internal gears and gears with geometric constraints&nbsp;that make other methods, such as hobbing, impossible. Gear shaping kinematics are modelled and&nbsp;cutting force prediction is achieved by extracting the cutter-workpiece engagement using a discrete&nbsp;multi-dexel based solid modeller. The two-dimensional chip geometry is reconstructed using the&nbsp;alpha-shape reconstruction method. The cutting edge is discretized into nodes with varying&nbsp;inclination, rake angles, and principal cutting directions. Finally, the cutting forces are estimated&nbsp;using the oblique cutting model. The estimated cutting forces match closely with measurements&nbsp;taken on a gear shaping machine tool.</p>
