Verification of the stability lobes of Inconel 718 milling by recurrence plot applications and composite multiscale entropy analysis

Abstract

Correctness verification of the stability lobe diagrams of milling process determined by commercial software CutPro 9 is the aim of this work. The analysis is performed for nickel superalloy Inconel 718 which is widely used in aviation industry. A methodology of stability analysis which bases on advanced nonlinear methods such as recurrence plot, recurrence quantifications analysis and composite multiscale entropy analysis are applied to the experimental data. Additionally, a new criterion for the determination of the unstable areas is proposed.
