dc.description.abstract<p>Unexplained acoustic emission spikes have been reported to occur at the workpiece entry and exit in interrupted machining operations, most notably during grinding. These AE spikes have yet to be fully explained in terms of their cause, or interpreted to yield useful information regarding the grinding process. This thesis research hence focuses on investigating this phenomenon. What started as a curiosity-driven project has resulted in an experimental technique to measure the actual contact length between the workpiece and the grinding wheel, as well as a technique for detecting grinding burn, which are of remarkable practical significance.</p>en_US
