METHODOLOGY

The methodology employed in this research integrates simulation, signal processing, and finite element analysis (FEA) within a MATLAB and Simulink environment to enable predictive monitoring of tool wear. The system architecture comprises five functional modules working in tandem to simulate a realistic machining scenario and detect tool degradation through vibrational and modal analysis.

Figure illustrates the step-by-step methodology adopted in this study for predictive tool wear monitoring. It outlines the process from experimental design and CAD modeling to FEA simulation, analysis, and trend-based wear prediction.
