The surface grinding process is simulated by developing a special purpose computer package, where the grinding wheel surface is presented statistically by a Rayleigh distribution, and by using the Monte Carlo techniques. The effect of the grinding wheel profile and the kinematic input parameters on the internal parameters of the process and the workpiece surface roughness have been investigated. These are strongly related to the input parameters (νs,νw,a). The investigation shows that the active cutting edges represent only a small percentage of the total cutting edges (2% - 12%).
