Abstract
Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) composites which are having various applications in the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering, due to its excellent properties such as lighter weight, higher specific strength and high stiffness. Machining is an important process in manufacturing operations and drilling of holes in GFRP leads to drilling induced damage which is one of the important research areas. In the present study finite element analysis of drilling behavior of GFRP has been carried out in LS-DYNA solver. The results are compared with experimental work and found that the thrust force and torque determined by finite element analysis showed good results when compared with the experimental results
