Cutting Forces Results are
generated by Matlab codes for both oblique and orthogonal cutting
Orthogonal cutting has only two cutting forces components
Tangential force is the dominate component.

The “U” shape curve presents the magnitude of deflection changes as the cutting tool travels from the top to the bottom surface of the disk.
The displacement vector sum is largest at the top.
The subsequent models will have the cutting forces applied at the top surface.
