Preface
Machiningwithabrasivesisawidelyusedprocessforproducingintricateshapeson
components and artifacts and for providing precise tolerances that are required
especiallyforthemanufactureofengineeringcomponents.Grindingtechnologyis
associated with the current developments in this area and this book contains
chapters on abrasive materials, bonding systems, grinding wheel design, micro
and nanogrinding, control of grinding processes, abrasive grinding, abrasive
water jet grinding, and dressing of grinding wheels. The chapters are written by
subject matterexperts fromaroundthe world andprovideanauthoritative texton
the current developments in machining with abrasive tools. Chapter 1 focuses on
new developments in abrasive materials and associated bonding systems ranging
from conventional abrasives to superabrasive materials. Chapter 2 provides an
interesting prose on heat treatment and the performance of vitrified bonds, while
Chap.3takesalookatthedesignofgrindingwheelsandwheelsafety.Thedressing
of grinding wheels is discussed in Chap.4 and leads into a chapter on the on the
surface integrity in ground surfaces (Chap.5). The control aspect of grinding is
explained lucidly in Chap.6, while Chap.7 focuses on the exciting new area of
nanogrinding. The final chapters deal with polishing with loose abrasive particles
andanauthoritativeoverviewofimpactabrasivemachining.
The structure ofthe book is based on matter provided by many colleagues and
the author wishes to thank the contributors of this book for helping construct a

engineering at the University of Liverpool in 1998. At Liverpool, Dr. Jackson
established research in the field of micromachining using mechanical tools, laser
beams, and abrasive particles. At Liverpool, he attracted a number of research
grantsconcernedwithdevelopinginnovativemanufacturingprocessesforwhichhe
was jointly awarded an Innovative Manufacturing Technology Center from the
EngineeringandPhysicalSciencesResearchCouncilinNovember2001.In2002,
he became associate professor of mechanical engineering and faculty associate in
theCenterforManufacturingResearch,andCenterforElectricPoweratTennessee
TechnologicalUniversity(anassociateduniversityofOakRidgeNationalLabora-
tory), and a faculty associate at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Dr. Jackson was
the academic adviser to the Formula SAE Team at Tennessee Technological
University. In 2004 he moved to Purdue University as Professor of Mechanical
EngineeringintheCollegeofTechnology.
Doctor Jackson is active in research work concerned with understanding the
propertiesofmaterialsinthefieldofmicroscalemetalcutting,micro-andnanoab-
rasive machining, and laser micro machining. He is also involved in developing
nextgenerationmanufacturingprocesses.DoctorJacksonhasdirected,co-directed,
