Effect of different machining parameters on surface roughness of aluminum alloys based on Si and Mg content

Aluminum alloys are being extensively used almost in all engineering fields owing to their wide range of mechanical properties. Machining of the aluminum alloys is one of the research area that focusses primarily on improved machining with high production rate. In machining of aluminum alloys, some...
