Analytical modeling of surface profile in turning and burnishing

Microgeometry surface profile is one of the most important characteristics of a machined surface. Among the parameters to respect, it is important to predict the surface profile which reflects the quality of the generated surface before the machining process. In this work, an analytical study was performed to predict the surface profile obtained by turning and burnishing after turning. It was noted that the surface profile depends on several parameters such as cutting parameters, tool geometry, workpiece and tool materials, and vibration parameters. The analytical results were successfully compared to experimental data obtained in the previous works of the authors.
