Optimisation of surface integrity model using response surface methodology for EDMed AISI D2 tool steel

In this analysis, the influence of machining parameters, i.e., pulse current (Ip), pulse duration (Ton), duty cycle (Tau) and discharge voltage (V) on the surface roughness (Ra), surface crack density (SCD) and white layer thickness (WLT) of surface created in electrical discharge machining are exam...
