Forward and Reverse Process Models for the Squeeze Casting Process Using Neural Network Based Approaches by Manjunath Patel Gowdru Chandrashekarappa, Prasad Krishna, Mahesh B. Parappagoudar

“…Forward mapping aims at predicting the density and secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) from the known set of squeeze cast process parameters such as time delay, pressure duration, squeezes pressure, pouring temperature, and die temperature. An attempt is also made to meet the industrial requirements of developing the reverse model to predict the recommended squeeze cast parameters for the desired density and SDAS. …”
