Laser Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB) of copper and low-alloyed copper alloys remains challenging due to their low infrared absorptivity and high thermal conductivity. This study introduces a multi-faceted strategy integrating computational thermodynamics-guided alloy design, Mo nanoparticle surface decoration, and thermal process optimization to enable robust and energy-efficient PBF-LB processing of reflective Cu-based alloys. Surface decoration with 0.44 wt% Mo nanoparticles enhances laser energy absorption, enabling a 40–45 % reduction in the required laser volumetric energy density from 167 to 188–100–118 J/mm3 to achieve > 99.1 % part density. Additionally, Mo addition improves the alloy’s resistance to precipitate coarsening while maintaining low solid solubility in Cu, thereby preserving electrical conductivity. In CuCrZr alloys, baseplate preheating to 300 °C promotes densification and in-situ precipitation of Cr and CuxZry phases during PBF-LB, enhancing both strength and conductivity. In contrast, Mo addition suppresses in-situ precipitation due to its sluggish diffusion in Cu and preferential partitioning into Cr and CuxZry phases. After direct age-hardening (450 °C, 9 h), the CuCrZrMo alloy exhibits a fine dispersion of Mo-doped nanoprecipitates, achieving a yield strength of 598 ± 7 MPa (vs. 576 ± 7 MPa for CuCrZr) while retaining high electrical conductivity (67–68 % IACS). This work highlights a synergistic alloy and process design strategy to address key PBF-LB challenges in Cu alloys, enabling their application in high-performance components requiring combined high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity.
铜和低合金铜的激光粉末床熔合(PBF-LB)由于其低红外吸收率和高导热性而仍然具有挑战性。本研究介绍了一种将计算热力学指导的合金设计、Mo纳米颗粒表面修饰和热工艺优化相结合的多角度策略,以实现高效节能的PBF-LB加工反射型cu基合金。表面装饰0.44 wt%的Mo纳米颗粒增强激光能量吸收,使所需的激光体积能量密度从167降低到188-100-118 J/mm3,降低40-45 %,达到>; 99.1 %的零件密度。此外,Mo的加入提高了合金的抗沉淀粗化能力,同时在Cu中保持了较低的固溶性,从而保持了导电性。在CuCrZr合金中,底板预热至300℃可促进PBF-LB过程中Cr和CuxZry相的致密化和原位析出,从而提高强度和导电性。相反,Mo的加入抑制了原位析出,这是由于Mo在Cu中的缓慢扩散和优先分配到Cr和CuxZry相。直接时效硬化(450°C, 9 h)后,CuCrZrMo合金表现出mo掺杂纳米沉淀物的精细分散,屈服强度达到598 ± 7 MPa (CuCrZr为576 ± 7 MPa),同时保持高电导率(67-68 % IACS)。这项工作强调了一种协同的合金和工艺设计策略,以解决铜合金中PBF-LB的关键挑战,使其能够应用于需要高机械强度和导电性的高性能部件。

Continuous fiber-reinforced polymer additive manufacturing (CFRP-AM) enables the creation of a novel class of composite structures known as suspension lattices, formed by stacking distinct layer patterns via self-supporting suspension printing (SSSP). With hybrid topologies and complex internal channels, these structures open new avenues for structural enhancement and multifunctional integration. However, engineering suspension lattices with intricate corner path features remains challenging due to limited understanding of printing mechanisms and a lack of effective process planning methods to address manufacturing issues, like gravity-induced sagging and fiber-tension-induced turning slippage. This study proposes a mechanism-driven process planning method for architecting geometrically accurate and mechanically robust suspension lattices. The process is categorized into two phases (i.e., fabrication of primary skeletons and secondary elements) to decouple the structural complexity. The underlying printing mechanism is revealed through experimental characterization of diverse path features, which facilitates the development of physics-informed few-shot learning (PI-FSL) models for accurate prediction of printing quality. A slip transmission mechanism for sequential corner features is introduced that leverages PI-FSL models to quantify the influence of preceding path slippage on the subsequent path accuracy. Subsequently, these models are integrated with a genetic algorithm for path planning of suspension lattices. The proposed approach achieves high efficiency in three complex target patterns, as evidenced by desirable path accuracy with geometric deviations of less than 1.0 mm. Furthermore, the effectiveness of this method is demonstrated through two potential applications in creating two-and-a-half-dimensional (2.5D) lattices for battery enclosures and three-dimensional (3D) skeletons for drone protective cages.
连续纤维增强聚合物增材制造(CFRP-AM)能够创造一种新型的复合结构,称为悬浮晶格,通过自支撑悬浮打印(SSSP)堆叠不同的层模式形成。这些结构具有混合拓扑结构和复杂的内部通道,为结构增强和多功能集成开辟了新的途径。然而,由于对打印机制的了解有限,并且缺乏有效的工艺规划方法来解决制造问题,例如重力引起的下垂和纤维张力引起的转向滑移,具有复杂角路径特征的工程悬架仍然具有挑战性。本研究提出了一种机械驱动的工艺规划方法,用于构建几何精确且机械坚固的悬架网格。该过程分为两个阶段(即,主要骨架和次要元素的制造),以解耦结构的复杂性。通过对不同路径特征的实验表征,揭示了潜在的印刷机制,从而促进了基于物理信息的少射学习(PI-FSL)模型的发展,从而准确预测印刷质量。引入了一种用于顺序转角特征的滑移传递机制,该机制利用PI-FSL模型来量化前一路径滑移对后续路径精度的影响。然后,将这些模型与遗传算法相结合,用于悬架格的路径规划。该方法在三种复杂的目标模式下具有较高的效率,其路径精度小于1.0 mm。此外,该方法的有效性通过两个潜在应用得到了证明,即为电池外壳创建两个半维(2.5D)晶格,为无人机保护笼创建三维(3D)骨架。

High-temperature electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding material is essential for intense thermal or electromagnetic radiation applications. Ceramics are promising candidates but are often fabricated with increased density and thickness to achieve sufficient shielding effectiveness (SE). However, we present an unconventional strategy to enhance the SE of ceramics by reducing density realized through hierarchical lattice design. 3D-printed silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) with self-arrayed and corrosion-resistant carbon nanosheets was employed to materialize this design. As the density decreases from 2.73 to 0.53 g/cm3, the SE increases from 12.53 to 27.27 dB. The combined effects of densely arrayed carbon nanosheets and hierarchical design amplify multi-reflection/scattering, enabling enhanced EMI shielding at reduced density. Furthermore, this structure is capable of operation at 600 °C and oxygen corrosion environment even at an ultralow density of 0.29 g/cm3, achieving over 99 % shielding efficiency. It exhibits a low thermal expansion coefficient of 1.41 × 10−6/K at 600 °C, along with compressive strength, Young’s modulus, and energy absorption of 6.38 MPa, 3.02 GPa, and 8.14 kJ/cm3, respectively, ensuring mechanical, dimensional, and shielding robustness. The interconnected hollow spaces and exposed surfaces facilitate both active and passive heat dissipation, preventing thermal failure and extending the operational lifespan. Under airflow, the heated structure cools to 46.6 °C within 25 s, effectively reducing the operating temperature. This strategy provides a straightforward approach for fabricating high-temperature and lightweight EMI shielding ceramics through structural optimization, underscoring its potential for performance enhancement, cost reduction, and application expansion for extreme environments.
高温电磁干扰(EMI)屏蔽材料对于强热或强电磁辐射应用是必不可少的。陶瓷是很有前途的候选材料,但为了获得足够的屏蔽效果,通常需要增加密度和厚度。然而,我们提出了一种非常规的策略,通过降低通过分层晶格设计实现的密度来提高陶瓷的SE。采用自排列和耐腐蚀碳纳米片的3d打印碳化硅(SiOC)来实现该设计。随着密度从2.73降低到0.53 g/cm3, SE从12.53增加到27.27 dB。密集排列的碳纳米片和分层设计的综合效应放大了多重反射/散射,从而在降低密度时增强了EMI屏蔽。此外,该结构能够在600°C和氧腐蚀环境下工作,即使在0.29 g/cm3的超低密度下,也能实现99% %以上的屏蔽效率。在600℃时,它的热膨胀系数为1.41 × 10−6/K,抗压强度、杨氏模量和能量吸收分别为6.38 MPa、3.02 GPa和8.14 kJ/cm3,确保了机械、尺寸和屏蔽的鲁棒性。相互连接的中空空间和暴露的表面有利于主动和被动散热,防止热失效并延长使用寿命。在气流作用下,加热结构在25 s内冷却至46.6℃,有效降低了工作温度。该策略通过结构优化为制造高温轻质EMI屏蔽陶瓷提供了一种简单的方法,强调了其在性能增强、成本降低和极端环境应用扩展方面的潜力。

Multi-material additive manufacturing (AM) introduces complex challenges in maintaining stable and controllable flow within the printing nozzle, where flow disturbances such as backflow, excessive shear stress, and delayed material transitions can compromise print uniformity and cell viability. These issues are particularly pronounced when handling non-Newtonian, yield stress bioinks such as Herschel–Bulkley fluids. Motivated by on-the-fly material switching, we explicitly scope the optimization to a one-ink-on/one-ink-idle Y-junction in which one inlet is driven while the other remains idle. This study presents a simulation-driven optimization framework for multi-material Y-junction nozzle geometry aimed at improving backflow suppression, shear-stress minimization, and rapid material switching. A numerical model quantifies three key performance indices as backflow potential, maximum wall shear stress, and switching time index across a four dimensional design space. High fidelity CFD simulations generate training data for a Gaussian Process surrogate with a Matérn kernel, and Bayesian optimization efficiently identifies optimal geometries. The optimized designs achieve significant reductions in backflow, peak shear stress, and outlet refill time compared to baseline nozzles. Experimental validation comprising cell viability assays on high versus low shear designs, air filled backflow tests in a worst-case setup, and on-the-fly switching time measurements corroborates all three cost components. Our findings deliver a robust, scalable, and experimentally validated methodology for multi-material nozzle design, with broad implications for precision, speed, and biological functionality in extrusion-based bioprinting.
多材料增材制造(AM)在保持打印喷嘴内稳定和可控的流动方面带来了复杂的挑战,其中回流、过度剪切应力和延迟的材料过渡等流动干扰会损害打印均匀性和细胞活力。这些问题在处理非牛顿屈服应力生物油墨(如Herschel-Bulkley流体)时尤为明显。在动态材料切换的激励下,我们明确地将优化范围扩展到一个墨水上/一个墨水空闲的y结,其中一个入口被驱动,而另一个保持空闲。本研究提出了一个模拟驱动的多材料y结喷嘴几何结构优化框架,旨在改善回流抑制、剪切应力最小化和快速材料切换。一个数值模型量化了三个关键性能指标,即回流势、最大壁面剪切应力和跨四维设计空间的切换时间指标。高保真CFD仿真生成具有mat核的高斯过程代理的训练数据,贝叶斯优化有效地识别出最优几何形状。与基准喷嘴相比,优化设计显著降低了回流、峰值剪切应力和出口重新注入时间。实验验证包括高剪切和低剪切设计下的细胞活力分析、最坏情况下的充气回流测试以及实时切换时间测量,证实了所有三个成本组成部分。我们的研究结果为多材料喷嘴设计提供了一种强大的、可扩展的、经过实验验证的方法,对挤压生物打印的精度、速度和生物功能具有广泛的意义。

Conventional powder bed fusion by laser beam (PBF-LB) utilizing high beam energy often generates unstable keyhole dynamics, leading to pore formation and compromised mechanical performance, especially for aluminum alloys. To address this limitation, we propose a novel Laser Keyhole Reshaping technology enhanced PBF-LB (LKRS-PBF-LB) strategy, integrating pulsed and continuous lasers to stabilize keyhole morphology. Experimental and computational analyses reveal that pulsed-laser-induced shockwaves dynamically reverse keyhole wall pressures, expanding the keyhole diameter (43→58 μm) and stabilizing its shape (J→I transition), thereby reducing porosity by an order of magnitude (3.63 %→0.14 %). Keyhole stabilization concurrently suppresses spattering by mitigating vapor pressure fluctuations and lowering peak pressures. Numerical simulations demonstrate enhanced melt flow and attenuated thermal gradients, promoting columnar-to-equiaxed transition and grain refinement. The LKRS-processed samples exhibited simultaneous enhancement in tensile strength (59.6 % increase) and ductility (0.78 %→2 %), attributable to porosity elimination and grain refinement. This approach introduces a novel keyhole reshaping technique that mitigates intrinsic instability, thereby enabling new avenues for advanced additive manufacturing with enhanced performance.
传统的高能激光粉末床熔炼(PBF-LB)通常会产生不稳定的锁孔动力学,导致孔形成和机械性能下降,尤其是铝合金。为了解决这一限制,我们提出了一种新的激光锁孔整形技术增强PBF-LB (LKRS-PBF-LB)策略,集成脉冲和连续激光来稳定锁孔形态。实验和计算分析表明,脉冲激光诱导的冲击波动态逆转了锁孔壁压力,扩大了锁孔直径(43→58 μm),稳定了锁孔形状(J→I过渡),从而降低了孔隙度(3.63 %→0.14 %)。锁孔稳定通过减轻蒸汽压力波动和降低峰值压力同时抑制飞溅。数值模拟表明,熔体流动增强,热梯度减弱,促进柱状向等轴转变和晶粒细化。由于孔隙的消除和晶粒的细化,lkrs处理的样品的抗拉强度(59.6% %)和延展性(0.78 %→2 %)同时提高。这种方法引入了一种新的锁孔重塑技术,减轻了固有的不稳定性,从而为提高性能的先进增材制造提供了新的途径。

In this work, we show that a multilevel finite element algorithm previously demonstrated for linear problems can, using a novel time integration method and other improvements, give efficient and accurate part-scale simulations of real additive manufacturing processes. The GPU-optimized multilevel finite element framework (GO-MELT) uses multiple moving meshes to simulate thermal behavior in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) processes; fixed mesh sizes and data structures allow straightforward implementation of this algorithm on GPU hardware. Building on this framework, we introduce key advancements including G-code parsing for complex laser paths, temperature-dependent material properties with distinct definitions for powder, solid, and fluid states, and time step subcycling across levels to manage computational loads effectively. These improvements enable precise simulation across the different material states encountered in LPBF while minimizing computational cost. Verification studies show that first-order time convergence is preserved even in the presence of nonlinearities, and the fidelity of the enhanced framework is validated against well-established experimental benchmarks, including in-situ X-ray diffraction data for Hastelloy-X and time above melting measurements from the NIST AM-Bench cantilever model. Computational tests demonstrate that our approach achieves an average execution time of 1.8 ms per time step, enabling a high-fidelity thermal simulation of 350 million time steps to be solved on a single GPU in 7.3 days, comparable to published simulations on much larger parallel systems. An analysis of thermal decay times can be used to further reduce simulation time by limiting simulation to time-points of interest. These results underscore the potential of this algorithm for advancing real-time process optimization and part quality improvement in LPBF.
在这项工作中,我们证明了先前用于线性问题的多层有限元算法可以使用新的时间积分方法和其他改进,给出真实增材制造过程的有效和准确的部分尺度模拟。基于gpu优化的多层有限元框架(GO-MELT)使用多个移动网格来模拟激光粉末床熔合(LPBF)过程中的热行为;固定的网格大小和数据结构允许在GPU硬件上直接实现该算法。在此框架的基础上,我们介绍了关键的进展,包括复杂激光路径的g代码解析,对粉末,固体和流体状态具有不同定义的温度相关材料特性,以及跨级别的时间步长子循环,以有效地管理计算负载。这些改进使LPBF中遇到的不同材料状态的精确模拟成为可能,同时最大限度地降低了计算成本。验证研究表明,即使在非线性存在的情况下,一阶时间收敛性仍然保持不变,并且增强框架的保真度通过完善的实验基准进行了验证,包括哈氏合金x射线的原位x射线衍射数据和NIST AM-Bench悬臂模型的熔化以上时间测量。计算测试表明,我们的方法实现了每个时间步1.8 ms的平均执行时间,从而可以在7.3天内在单个GPU上解决3.5亿个时间步的高保真热模拟,与在更大的并行系统上发布的模拟相当。热衰减时间的分析可以通过将模拟限制在感兴趣的时间点来进一步减少模拟时间。这些结果强调了该算法在推进LPBF实时工艺优化和零件质量改进方面的潜力。

Currently, both additive manufacturing technologies and fluid pressure forming process face significant challenges in fabricating large-sized, complex thin-walled metal components. To address these challenges, this paper introduces a novel integrated forming process that utilizes laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) preforming and hot gas forming (HGF). This method employs LPBF technology to fabricate near-net-shape preforms, which are subsequently subjected to HGF treatment to realize micro-scale precise deformation. This study systematically investigates the performance of AlSi10Mg alloy thin-walled preforms prepared by LPBF, along with the characteristics of the formed parts following the HGF process. Furthermore, subsequent heat treatment protocols are employed to improve the microstructural properties of the formed parts. Compared to the direct LPBF technology, this method exhibits marked enhancements in dimensional accuracy and density of the fabricated parts, effectively controlling dimensional deviations and substantially reducing porosity. Ultimately, the process culminates in the fabrication of complex thin-walled AlSi10Mg alloy parts characterized by a superior microstructure and mechanical properties. Specifically, the formed parts, measuring 165 mm with a wall thickness of 1.2 mm, achieve a dimensional accuracy of ± 0.24 mm and a maximum wall thickness reduction rate of less than 14.2 %, while attaining an impressive density of 99.93 %. Additionally, the parts exhibit excellent uniformity concerning the distribution and morphology of the precipitated phases, along with the shape and structure of the grains. Following solution heat treatment, the formed parts exhibited tensile strengths of 282 MPa at room temperature and 186 MPa at 230 °C, accompanied by elongations of 15.9 % and 11.7 %, respectively. This favorable combination of strength and ductility renders these materials well-suited for engineering applications that demand high overall mechanical performance. However, aging heat treatment after solution treatment resulted in a significantly improved of the mechanical properties. The tensile strengths increased to 350 MPa at room temperature and 201 MPa at 230°C, while the elongations were concurrently reduced to 6.9 % and 10.1 %, respectively. Such a property profile makes these materials particularly suitable for specialized applications where high strength is prioritized over ductility. The feasibility of LPBF-prepared preforms via the subsequent HGF process was systematically confirmed, thereby establishing a foundational basis for the prospective application of this integrated forming methodology.
目前,无论是增材制造技术还是流体压力成形技术,都面临着制造大型、复杂薄壁金属部件的重大挑战。为了解决这些问题,本文介绍了一种利用激光粉末床熔合(LPBF)预成形和热气体成形(HGF)的新型集成成形工艺。该方法采用LPBF技术制备近净形状的预成形件,然后对预成形件进行HGF处理,实现微尺度的精确变形。本研究系统地研究了LPBF制备的AlSi10Mg合金薄壁预制件的性能,以及HGF工艺后成形件的特点。此外,采用后续热处理方案来改善成形零件的显微组织性能。与直接LPBF技术相比,该方法显著提高了零件的尺寸精度和密度,有效地控制了尺寸偏差,大大减少了孔隙率。最终,该工艺最终制造出具有优越微观结构和机械性能的复杂薄壁AlSi10Mg合金零件。具体而言,成形零件尺寸为165 mm,壁厚为1.2 mm,尺寸精度为±0.24 mm,最大壁厚减薄率小于14.2 %,同时获得99.93 %的令人印象深刻的密度。此外,这些零件在析出相的分布和形貌以及晶粒的形状和结构方面表现出极好的均匀性。固溶热处理后,成形件室温拉伸强度为282 MPa, 230℃拉伸强度为186 MPa,延伸率分别为15.9 %和11.7 %。这种强度和延展性的良好组合使这些材料非常适合要求高整体机械性能的工程应用。固溶处理后进行时效热处理,力学性能得到明显改善。室温拉伸强度为350 MPa, 230℃拉伸强度为201 MPa,伸长率分别降至6.9% %和10.1 %。这种特性使这些材料特别适合于高强度优先于延展性的特殊应用。系统地验证了通过后续HGF工艺制备lpbf预成形件的可行性,从而为该综合成形方法的前瞻性应用奠定了基础。

Emission of blackbody radiation from the meltpool and surrounding area in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) makes this process visible to a range of optical monitoring instruments intended for online process and quality assessment. Yet, these instruments have not proven capable of reliably detecting the finest flaws that influence LPBF component mechanical performance, limiting their adoption. One hindrance lies in interpreting measurements of radiance as temperature, despite the physical link between these variables being readily understood as a combination of Planck’s Law and spectral emissivity. Uncertainty in spectral emissivity arises as it is nearly impossible to predict and can be a strong function of wavelength; in turn, this manifests uncertainty in estimated temperatures and thereby obscures the LPBF process dynamics that indicate component defects. This paper presents temperature emissivity separation (TES) as a method for accurate retrieval of optically-measured temperatures in LPBF. TES simultaneously calculates both temperature and spectral emissivity from spectrally-resolved radiance measurements and, as the latter term is effectively measured, more accurate process temperatures result. Using a bespoke imaging spectrometer integrated with an LPBF testbed to evaluate this approach, three basic TES algorithms are compared in a validation experiment that demonstrates retrieval of temperatures accurate to ±28 K over a 1000 K range. A second investigation proves industrial feasibility through fabrication of an LPBF test artifact. Temperature data are used to study the evolution of fusion process boundary conditions, including a decrease in cooling rate as layerwise printing proceeds. A provisional correlation of temperature fields to component porosity assessed by 3D computed tomography demonstrates in situ optical detection of micron-scale porous defects in LPBF.
激光粉末床熔融(LPBF)过程中熔池和周围区域黑体辐射的发射使得该过程对一系列用于在线过程和质量评估的光学监测仪器可见。然而,这些仪器尚未被证明能够可靠地检测影响LPBF组件机械性能的细微缺陷,这限制了它们的采用。尽管这些变量之间的物理联系很容易被理解为普朗克定律和光谱发射率的结合,但将辐射度的测量结果解释为温度是一个障碍。光谱发射率的不确定性出现,因为它几乎不可能预测,并且可能是波长的强函数;反过来,这显示了估计温度的不确定性,从而模糊了指示组件缺陷的LPBF过程动力学。本文提出了温度发射率分离(TES)作为一种精确反演LPBF光测温度的方法。TES同时计算温度和光谱发射率的光谱分辨辐射测量,并有效地测量后一项,更准确的过程温度结果。使用集成LPBF测试平台的定制成像光谱仪对该方法进行了评估,并在验证实验中比较了三种基本TES算法,验证了在1000 K范围内精确到±28 K的温度检索。第二次研究通过制造LPBF测试工件证明了工业可行性。温度数据用于研究融合过程边界条件的演变,包括随着分层印刷的进行冷却速率的降低。三维计算机断层扫描评估了温度场与组件孔隙度的临时相关性,证明了LPBF中微米级多孔缺陷的原位光学检测。

Projection multi-photon 3D printing is an emerging technique for fabricating micro-nano structures at exceptionally high speeds. It leverages the use of a digital micromirror (DMD) to project and print entire 2D layers at once, offering higher throughput and scalability than conventional point-by-point laser scanning. While two photon polymerization is widely regarded as an outstanding method for achieving high dimensional accuracy at the nanoscale, the projection aspect introduces a new set of challenges, such as under-printing due to oxygen inhibition. The inherently complex photopolymerization dynamics make it difficult to model and simulate efficiently. To address this, we introduce a data-driven methodology employing deep learning to build a surrogate model of the printing process and an inverse model for 2D DMD pattern optimization to achieve desirable printed shapes. By printing diverse shapes morphed by various parametrization schemes, we built a dataset for training convolutional encoder-decoder (autoencoder) neural networks. The trained surrogate accurately maps input DMD patterns to their final printed geometries, capturing nonlinearities introduced by process physics. Inverting the inputs and outputs further enabled us to train an inverse model for generating pre-compensated DMD patterns to print desirable target geometries. Experimental findings demonstrate that this deep learning approach accurately predicts printed outputs and enhances dimensional accuracy in the printing of 2D layers. Our results reveal a viable approach to overcome inhibition-induced constraints, enabling more accurate projection-based multi-photon printing at the micro and nanoscale.
投影多光子3D打印是一种新兴的以超高速制造微纳米结构的技术。它利用数字微镜(DMD)一次投射和打印整个2D层,比传统的逐点激光扫描提供更高的吞吐量和可扩展性。虽然双光子聚合被广泛认为是在纳米尺度上实现高尺寸精度的一种杰出方法,但投影方面引入了一系列新的挑战,例如由于氧抑制而导致的欠印。固有的复杂的光聚合动力学使其难以有效地建模和模拟。为了解决这个问题,我们引入了一种数据驱动的方法,采用深度学习来构建打印过程的代理模型和2D DMD图案优化的逆模型,以实现理想的打印形状。通过打印由各种参数化方案变形的各种形状,我们建立了一个用于训练卷积编码器-解码器(自编码器)神经网络的数据集。经过训练的代理将输入的DMD模式精确地映射到它们最终的打印几何形状,捕获由过程物理引入的非线性。反过来的输入和输出进一步使我们能够训练一个反向模型,用于生成预补偿的DMD模式,以打印理想的目标几何形状。实验结果表明,这种深度学习方法可以准确地预测打印输出,提高二维层打印的尺寸精度。我们的研究结果揭示了一种可行的方法来克服抑制诱导的限制,从而在微纳米尺度上实现更精确的基于投影的多光子打印。

This paper presents an eXtended physics-informed neural networks (XPINN)-based framework for predicting the temperature history during a multi-layer Directed Energy Deposition (DED) process. The proposed XPINN-based framework, advancing from its PINN-based counterpart, demonstrates significant accuracy improvement, around 50% reduction in RMSE and maximum absolute error, and extended capability of temperature history prediction with domain decomposition for more complex configurations such as interpass time, void, and interruption of scan that are prevalent in real-life DED designs. It is validated via a series of 2D benchmark tests against numerical simulations with an increasing degree of complexity. The effect of different domain decompositions is compared and discussed. Strategies that improve the training outcome are also proposed and analysed. With the enhanced capability of working on more complex configurations while retaining the characteristic availability of derivative information, the proposed framework brings process-ware design optimisation based on scientific machine learning (SciML) techniques one step closer to the application to real-life additive manufacturing applications.
