Indirect tool-wear maps for tool condition monitoring in dry metal drilling operations حسب Ammouri, A.H.

"…For verification, this index is found to positively track the corresponding increase in cutting forces. Utilizing this index, an implementation example is presented in this paper by which a real-time tool monitoring of chisel drills is achieved by inputting the CRI along with the cutting parameters to an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) which yielded good tool condition predictions.…"
