Which machining defect arises when resonant vibration occurs during lathe turning?

A)Chatter marks on the surface
B)Work-hardening of material's surface
C)Localized thermal stress cracking
D)Elongated grain structure distortion

💡 Explanation

Resonant vibration initiates a positive feedback loop, amplifying vibrations to induce severe surface imperfections—chatter marks—due to self-excited oscillations. This occurs because the cutting tool repetitively impacts the uneven surface rather than maintaining steady contact, therefore causing chatter, rather than work-hardening.
