Abstract
rosion of ductile materials by abrasive waterjet machining
(AWJM) is still a complex phenomenon. This pa
per presents a first
attempt to simulate the abrasive waterjet machining (AWJM) process
using the finite element method (FEM) in order to determine the
workpiece response in this erosive wear process. Additionally,
deformations occurring in the workpiece m
aterial in the vicinity of the
cutting interface as a result of the high speed AWJ impact could be
obtained. The results indicate that the finite element method is a
useful tool in the prediction of the AWJ deformations.
