Optimization of Process Parameters for Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing by Combination of Machine Learning and Finite Element Method: A Conceptual Framework
Open accessAbstract
In addition to prototyping, Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) AM processes have lately been more widely used to manufacture end-use parts. These changes lead to necessity of higher requirements to quality of a final product. Optimization of process parameters is one of the ways to achieve desired quality of a part. Finite Element Method (FEM) and machine learning techniques are applied to evaluate and optimize AM process parameters. While FEM requires specific information, Machine Learning is based on big amounts of data. This paper provides a conceptual framework on combination of mathematical modelling and Machine Learning to avoid these issues.

ML and finite element modeling have been used to simulate the physical processes of 3D printing in order to improve the quality of finished products.
“Novel manufacturing techniques such as 3D printing allow for the production of unusual shapes that use less material but may be impossible to produce through traditional metal-casting or poured concrete; ML and finite element modeling have been used to simulate the physical processes of 3D printing in order to improve the quality of finished products [62].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
