This work is the result of a careful selection made from more than 300 extensively peer-reviewed papers treating recent advances in the field of abrasive technology. The collection is divided into five parts: Abrasives and tooling technology; Grinding; Lapping, polishing and honing; Machines and automation; and, Other abrasive processes. The topics covered include the mechanics and control of abrasive processes, modeling and simulation of abrasive processes, measurement and surface quality assessment, cooling and coolants, polishing, wheel truing and dressing, novel abrasive techniques, and novel machining techniques. This volume will be of great value to production and research engineers, research students and academics working in the field.
