THROUGH THE AUTHORS' PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION, IT WAS SHOWN THAT THE WORKPIECE NORMAL FORCE GENERATED BY AN ABRASIVE WATERJET COULD BE USED AS AN INDICATOR OF THE SURFACE QUALITY. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY WAS TO DEVELOP THE METHODOLOGY THAT COULD CHARACTERIZE AND CONTROL THE SURFACE QUALITY BY THE LEVEL OF THE WORKPIECE NORMAL FORCE IN THE BROAD RANGE OF THE ABRASIVE WATERJET CUTTING PARAMETERS. IT WAS GENERALLY OBSERVED THAT A HIGHER WORKPIECE NORMAL FORCE TENDS TO YIELD A ROUGHER SURFACE QUALITY.
