...Rajkumar D; Ranjithkumar P; M.P. Jenarthanan; Sathiya Narayanan C Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a statistical model for delamination and thrust forcing during drilling of carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites using response surface methodology (RSM) to determine...

.../methodology/approach Based on the full factorial design, the experiments were conducted. The output responses considered are thrust force, torque, delamination and diameter deviation. Based on responses, the optimised process parameter was selected using grey-fuzzy reasoning analysis (GFRA). Findings...
