... to mitigate chatter and forced vibration problems caused by the high flexibilities of thin-walled blades and slender cutting tools in five-axis ball-end milling operations. The effects of tool orientation and spindle speed on the cutting stability and forced vibration are demonstrated through simulations...

...Behnam Karimi; Yusuf Altintas The five-axis ball-end milling dynamics of thin-walled blades is presented. The cutting forces are predicted from the ball-end mill–blade geometry engagement maps along the toolpath. The Frequency Response Function (FRF) of the thin-walled blade is predicted using...

.... Although there have been numerous works in milling dynamics, the stability of five-axis ball-end milling has not been studied in detail. In this paper, the stability of the five-axis ball-end milling is analyzed using analytical (frequency domain), numerical (time-domain), and experimental methods...
