Table of Contents:
- Controlled and uncontrolled separation of parts: cutting, scraping and spreading
- Fracture mechanics and friction: muscles, impact and new surfaces
- Simple orthogonal cutting of floppy, brittle and ductile materials
- Types of chip: load fluctuations, scaling and deformation transitions
- Slice-push ration: oblique cutting and curved blades, scissors, guillotining and drilling
- Cutting with more than one edge: scratching, grinding, abrasive wear, engraving and sculpting
- Sawing, chisels and files
- Punching holes: piercing and perforating, arms and armour
- Sharpness and bluntness: absolute or relative? Tool materials and tool wear
- Unrestrained and restrained workpieces: dynamic cutting
- Cutting in biology, palaeontology and medicine
- Food and food-cutting devices and wire cutting
- Teeth as cutting tools
- Burrowing in soils, digging and ploughing
- Unintentional and accidental cutting: supermarket plastic bags, falling objects, ships hitting rocks and aeroplanes hitting buildings.
