as a coolant, limits softening of the chip so that more energy is required than for cutting in air. With twophase materials it acts similarly but prevents b.u.c. at low speeds. The results confirm theory but higher energies are required in practice. Five basic processes govern chip formation : shear along the shear plane, tool face drag, collar formation, builtup-edge formation and chip cracking. The current state of understanding of these processes is reviewed.

Rolling Element Fatigue and Macroresidual Stress. rt.I<.Kcpple and K. L. Mattson, JOLT, 9” SW. F, (I) (1970) 76-82; IO figs., 4 tables, 14 rcfs. An investigation to determine the effect of residual stress on rolling element fatigue life. Hoop-shaped specimens statically stressed in both a tangential and transverse direction, to simulate biaxial tension or compression stress states, were subjected to repeated rolling contact fatigue. The results showed that fatigue properties for the compressive state are not significantly better than the zero stress state which is contrary to general opinion. Tensile state was detrimental as expected. 2. SURFACE PROPERTIES, AND FRICTION

Interactions in Neopentyl Polyol EsterTricresvl Phosuhate-Iron Systems at 500°F. ft. L. Cottingion and H. Ravner, ASLE Trans., 12 (4) (1969) 280--286; 7 tables, IO refs. Neopentyl polyol esters are thermally stable at 500°F but in the presence of ferrous metals lubricant degradation and metal corrosion are severe. TCP stabilises the metal/ester system by generating a passive oxide on the metal surface. In the presence of water TCP accelerates ester hydrolysis. Aliphatic amines which react with TCP acidic impurities or breakdown products reduce the catalysed hydrolysis of the esters. TCP reacts with free carboxyiic acids to produce phosphoric type acids. Reaction mechanisms are postulated. Evaluation of Size of Actual Contact Area. S. V. Ventsel and V. Ya. Kryuchov, Ratssiart E+zg. /., 49 (7) (1969) 19-20; 1 table, 6 refs.

A consideration of the possibility of deriving a thcorctical equation for determining the workpiecc surface temperature in the cutting zone when grindiug with a diamond wheel. The temperature is greatly affected by wheel grit and the most important factor is grinding depth. The best wheels, as regards wear resistance and thermal intensity of the grinding process. are ceramic-bonded wheels and wheels with a bakclite-copper special arlditivc bond.

Stresses in the Chip Formation Zone. N. N. Zorev d al., Russian Etzp. J. 49 (7) (1969) Sr-84; 3 figs., 5 refs. (Transl. by l’.E. 1i.X. of Ct.
