Vidya Vikas Institute of engineering and TEchnology, Mysore - 570010 (INDIA) Research Fellow, Dr. MGR University, Chennai, and Prof of Physics, Saradavilas College, Mysore - 570004 (INDIA) <p style="text-align: justify;">This paper presents the finite element method to determine the temperature profile within the volume of the material during laser cutting of 304 grade stainless steel. The commercially available ANSYS software is used to find the solution for the finite element analysis. The results of the study showed that the temperature distribution is confined to a small region which is in agreement with the theoretical predictions.<br /> &nbsp;</p> https://ultraphysicalsciences.org/paper/1295/ Stainless Steel Laser cutting Finite element model.
