    The measurement and simulation data, their preparation and the simulation setup published in this co-submission are related to the article ""Simulation of metal cutting with cutting fluid using the Finite-Pointset-Method"". Wet and dry turning experiments were conducted at the Institute for Machine Tools and Factory Management(IWF), Berlin, Germany. Required adaptions of the used software MESHFREE were performed at Fraunhofer ITWM, Kaiserslautern, Germany. Both institutes collaboratively developed and validated the orthogonal cutting simulation model using the Finite-Pointset-Method (FPM). In this paper all measurement and simulation data and their preparation methods are presented in detail. This includes the preparation methods of process forces, analysis of chip morphology images as well as measured contact lengths on tool rake faces. Moreover, the experimental and simulation data are provided at the Mendeley Data repository. Hence the reader can use the data for own validations and analysis. Furthermore, the used simulation model files are completely published at the Mendeley Data repository. It allows the reader to retrace all settings. In addition, this enables to repeat the simulations and to simulate other process parameter combinations according to own interests.

    In industrial machining operations, many turning processes are carried out under wet conditions. In contrast, most simulation tools are only suitable for dry cutting processes due to challenges of modeling fluid-structure-interactions (FSI). In this paper, a wet, fully coupled cutting simulation using the Finite-Pointset-Method (FPM) is presented and validated for industrially relevant cylindrical turning. To facilitate the required reduction of the calculation effort, different routines like adaptive numerical discretization are applied. The results indicate different cutting fluid effects like evaporation areas around the chip.

    A key challenge in electrical discharge machining (EDM) is to find a suitable combination out of numerous process parameters. Any changes concerning the electrode materials or geometries require newly optimized technologies. These technologies are to be developed from a considerable number of experiments which must be carried out by an experienced operator. This paper presents a new method of finding the optimal set of parameters. Here, the performance of the evolution strategy (ES), a stochastic, metaheuristic optimization method, is investigated. It offers the great advantage of finding solutions, even with little knowledge of system behaviour. The method involved a randomized and a derandomized ES, based on a non-elitist (m,l)-ES with one parent and four children. The two ES were initialized from an unfavourable starting point (A) and from a favourable starting point (B) to investigate their effectiveness. It could be demonstrated that starting from the unfavourable starting point A the erosion duration tero could be reduced by a maximum of 77% with a slightly smaller linear wear of the tool electrode DlE after 40 trials.
