Abstract
A mechanical analysis has been developed for the forces generated in paper cutting as a function of blade geometry. This in turn permits the optimization of cutter geometry for various design objectives and provides insight into the subtleties of what might at first appear to be one of the simplest mechanisms of mankind.
