Improving precision of material extrusion 3D printing by in-situ monitoring and predicting 3D geometric deviation using Conditional Adversarial Networks

The field of additive manufacturing, especially 3D printing, has gained growing attention in the research and commercial sectors in recent years. Notwithstanding that the capabilities of 3D printing have moved on to enhanced resolution, higher deposition rate, and a wide variety of materials, the crucial challenge of verifying that the component manufactured is within the dimensional tolerance as designed continues to exist. Material extrusion 3D printing has long been established for rapid prototyping and functional testing in many research and industry fields. However, its inconsistency and intrinsic defects (surface roughness and geometric inaccuracies) hinder its application in several areas, most notably “certify-as-you- build” small-batch prototyping and large-batch production.In this study, we present an approach to reduce both inconsistency and the 3D geometric inaccuracies of products fabricated by material extrusion.1. This work developed and demonstrated an approach for layer-by-layer mapping of 3D printed parts, which can be used for validation of printed models and in situ adjustment of print parameters. This in situ metrology system scans each layer at the time of printing, providing a 3D model of the as-printed part. A high-speed optical scanning system was integrated with a Material Extrusion type 3D printer to achieve in situ monitoring of dimensional inaccuracies during printing, which leaves the door open to implement a closed-loop feedback system to compensate geometric errors during printing in the future and fabricate “certify-as-you-build” products.2. This work trained machine learning algorithms with data from this scanning system and predicted 3D geometric inaccuracies in new designs. Eight Conditional Adversarial Networks (CAN) machine learning models were trained on a limited number of scanned profile images of different layers, consisting of less than 50 actual images and 50 generated images, to predict the 3D geometric deviations of freeform shapes. The generated images were produced by randomly combining and cropping the actual images without any distortion. These CAN models produced predictions where at least 44.4%, 87.6%, 99.2% of data were within �0.05 mm, �0.10 mm, �0.15 mm of the actual measured value, respectively.3. This work developed an Iterative Forward approach to redesign the Computer-Aided- Design model by reverse engineering using the trained machine learning models, allowing for compensation of print imperfection at the design stage, in advance of the first printing. The compensation algorithms with eight different sets of different parameters were evaluated. It has been proven that the Iterative Forward approach improved the geometric deviation of the predicted profiles by making compensation to the CAD model

A Review of the Application of Machine Learning and Data Mining Approaches in Continuum Materials Mechanics

Machine learning tools represent key enablers for empowering material scientists and engineers to accelerate the development of novel materials, processes and techniques. One of the aims of using such approaches in the field of materials science is to achieve high-throughput identification and quantification of essential features along the process-structure-property-performance chain. In this contribution, machine learning and statistical learning approaches are reviewed in terms of their successful application to specific problems in the field of continuum materials mechanics. They are categorized with respect to their type of task designated to be either descriptive, predictive or prescriptive; thus to ultimately achieve identification, prediction or even optimization of essential characteristics. The respective choice of the most appropriate machine learning approach highly depends on the specific use-case, type of material, kind of data involved, spatial and temporal scales, formats, and desired knowledge gain as well as affordable computational costs. Different examples are reviewed involving case-by-case dependent application of different types of artificial neural networks and other data-driven approaches such as support vector machines, decision trees and random forests as well as Bayesian learning, and model order reduction procedures such as principal component analysis, among others. These techniques are applied to accelerate the identification of material parameters or salient features for materials characterization, to support rapid design and optimization of novel materials or manufacturing methods, to improve and correct complex measurement devices, or to better understand and predict fatigue behavior, among other examples. Besides experimentally obtained datasets, numerous studies draw required information from simulation-based data mining. Altogether, it is shown that experiment- and simulation-based data mining in combination with machine leaning tools provide exceptional opportunities to enable highly reliant identification of fundamental interrelations within materials for characterization and optimization in a scale-bridging manner. Potentials of further utilizing applied machine learning in materials science and empowering significant acceleration of knowledge output are pointed out

Proceedings of the 2nd Conference on Production Systems and Logistics (CPSL 2021)

Proceedings of the CPSL 202

Proceedings of the 9th Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD) international conference 2021 (ASCAAD 2021): architecture in the age of disruptive technologies: transformation and challenges.

The ASCAAD 2021 conference theme is Architecture in the age of disruptive technologies: transformation and challenges. The theme addresses the gradual shift in computational design from prototypical morphogenetic-centered associations in the architectural discourse. This imminent shift of focus is increasingly stirring a debate in the architectural community and is provoking a much needed critical questioning of the role of computation in architecture as a sole embodiment and enactment of technical dimensions, into one that rather deliberately pursues and embraces the humanities as an ultimate aspiration

Apprentissage profond pour l'aide à la détection d'anomalies dans l'industrie 4.0

L’industrie 4.0 (I4.0) correspond à une nouvelle façon de planifier, d’organiser, et d’optimiser les systèmes de production. Par conséquent, l’exploitation croissante de ces systèmes grâce à la présence de nombreux objets connectés, et la transformation digitale offrent de nouvelles opportunités pour rendre les usines intelligentes et faire du smart manufacturing. Cependant, ces technologies se heurtent à de nombre défis. Une façon de leurs d’appréhender consiste à automatiser les processus. Cela permet d’augmenter la disponibilité, la rentabilité, l’efficacité et de l’usine. Cette thèse porte donc sur l’automatisation de l’I4.0 via le développement des outils d’aide à la décision basés sur des modèles d’IA guidés par les données et par la physique. Au-delà des aspects théoriques, la contribution et l’originalité de notre étude consistent à implémenter des modèles hybrides, explicable et généralisables pour la Maintenance Prédictive (PdM). Pour ce motif, nous avons développé deux approches pour expliquer les modèles : En extrayant les connaissances locales et globales des processus d’apprentissage pour mettre en lumière les règles de prise de décision via la technique l’intelligence artificielle explicable (XAI) et en introduisant des connaissances ou des lois physiques pour informer ou guider le modèle. À cette fin, notre étude se concentrera sur trois principaux points : Premièrement, nous présenterons un état de l’art des techniques de détection d’anomalies et de PdM4.0. Nous exploiterons l’analyse bibliométrique pour extraire et analyser des informations pertinentes provenant de la base de données Web of Science. Ces analyses fournissent des lignes directrices utiles pouvant aider les chercheurs et les praticiens à comprendre les principaux défis et les questions scientifiques les plus pertinentes liées à l’IA et la PdM. Deuxièmement, nous avons développé deux Framework qui sont basés sur des réseaux de neurones profonds (DNN). Le premier est formé de deux modules à savoir un DNN et un Deep SHapley Additive exPlanations (DeepSHAP). Le module DNN est utilisé pour résoudre les tâches de classification multi-classes déséquilibrées des états du système hydraulique. Malgré leurs performances, certaines questions subsistent quant à la fiabilité et la transparence des DNNs en tant que modèle à "boîte noire". Pour répondre à cette question, nous avons développé un second module nommé DeepSHAP. Ce dernier montrant l’importance et la contribution de chaque variable dans la prise de décision de l’algorithme. En outre, elle favorise la compréhension du processus et guide les humains à mieux comprendre, interpréter et faire confiance aux modèles d’IA. Le deuxième Framework hybride est connu sous le nom de Physical-Informed Deep Neural Networks (PINN). Ce modèle est utilisé pour prédire les états du processus de soudage par friction malaxage. Le PINN consiste à introduire des connaissances explicites ou des contraintes physiques dans l’algorithme d’apprentissage. Cette contrainte fournit une meilleure connaissance et oblige le modèle à suivre la topologie du processus. Une fois formés, les PINNs peuvent remplacer les simulations numériques qui demandent beaucoup de temps de calcul. En résumé, ce travail ouvre des perspectives nouvelles et prometteuses domaine de l’explicabilité des modèles d’AI appliqués aux problématiques de PdM 4.0. En particulier, l’exploitation de ces Framework contribuent à une connaissance plus précise du système
