Uses high-pressure water, sometimes mixed with abrasives, for precise cutting. 2. Thermo-Electric Energy-Based Processes
Traditional machining often struggles with modern, high-strength materials like super-alloys and ceramics. The text by P.C. Pandey details how modern machining overcomes these limitations by using different energy forms to remove material without direct tool-to-workpiece contact.

It provides a balanced account of the underlying physical principles as well as practical industrial applications.
Uses a high-velocity beam of electrons focused on the workpiece in a vacuum. 3. Chemical and Electrochemical Energy-Based Processes
Includes problems and exercises to help students master the engineering calculations required for each process.
