An Overarching Quality Evaluation Framework for Additive Manufacturing Digital Twin

April 15, 2024
Author(s)
Yan Lu, Zhuo Yang, Shengyen Li, Yaoyao Fiona Zhao, Jiarui Xie, Mutahar Safdar, Hyunwoong Ko
The key differentiation of digital twins from existing models-based engineering approaches lies in the continuous synchronization between physical and virtual twins through data exchange. The success of digital twins, whether operated automatically or with

KNOWLEDGE EXTRACTION IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING A FORMAL CONCEPT ANALYSIS APPROACH

March 20, 2024
Author(s)
Zhuo Yang, Yan Lu, Yande Ndiaye, Mario Lezoche, Herve Panetto
In Additive Manufacturing (AM), it is still a major challenge to manage part quality, which is heavily influenced by feedstock materials, process settings, and in-process control. Deviations in these factors can lead to defects in the final product

MULTI-SCALE MODEL PREDICTIVE CONTROL FOR LASER POWDER BED FUSION ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

March 20, 2024
Author(s)
Gi Suk Hong, Zhuo Yang, Yan Lu, Brandon Lane, Ho Yeung, Jaehyuk Kim
Additive manufacturing (AM) process stability is critical for ensuring part quality. Model Predictive Control (MPC) has been widely recognized as a robust technology for controlling manufacturing processes across various industries. Despite its widespread
