Unveiling processing–property relationships in laser powder bed fusion: The synergy of machine learning and high-throughput experiments by Mahsa Amiri, Zahra Zanjani Foumani, Penghui Cao, Lorenzo Valdevit, Ramin Bostanabad

“…Here, we propose a methodology embracing the synergy between high-throughput (HT) experimentation and hierarchical machine learning (ML) to unveil the complex relationships between a large set of process parameters in Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) and selected mechanical properties (tensile strength and ductility). The HT method envisions the fabrication of small samples for rapid automated hardness and porosity characterization, and a smaller set of tensile specimens for more labor-intensive direct measurement of yield strength and ductility. …”
