The change in microstructure due to composition and process variations is expected to impact material properties. Identifying microstructural features such as grain boundaries thus becomes an important task in the process-microstructure-properties loop. Applying convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning models is a powerful technique to detect features from material micrographs in an automated manner. In contrast to microstructural classification, supervised CNN models for segmentation tasks require pixel-wise annotation labels. However, manual labeling of the images for the segmentation task poses a major bottleneck for generating training data and labels in a reliable and reproducible way within a reasonable timeframe. Microstructural characterization especially needs to be expedited for faster material discovery by changing alloy compositions. In this study, we attempt to overcome such limitations by utilizing multimodal microscopy to generate labels directly instead of manual labeling. We combine scanning electron microscopy images of 347H stainless steel as training data and electron backscatter diffraction micrographs as pixel-wise labels for grain boundary detection as a semantic segmentation task. The viability of our method is evaluated by considering a set of deep CNN architectures. We demonstrate that despite producing instrumentation drift during data collection between two modes of microscopy, this method performs comparably to similar segmentation tasks that used manual labeling. Additionally, we find that naïve pixel-wise segmentation results in small gaps and missing boundaries in the predicted grain boundary map. By incorporating topological information during model training, the connectivity of the grain boundary network and segmentation performance is improved. Finally, our approach is validated by accurate computation on downstream tasks of predicting the underlying grain morphology distributions which are the ultimate quantities of interest for microstructural characterization.</p>","PeriodicalId":13604,"journal":{"name":"Integrating Materials and Manufacturing Innovation","volume":"74 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139409452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This demands the capability to co-design PMMP systems, that is, share ranged sets of design solutions among distributed product, material, and manufacturing process designers. PMMP systems are subject to uncertainties in processing, microstructure, and models employed. Facilitating co-design requires support for simultaneously exploring high-dimensional design spaces across multiple levels under uncertainty. In this paper, we present the Co-Design Exploration of Multilevel PMMP systems under Uncertainty (CoDE-MU) framework to facilitate the simultaneous exploration of high-dimensional design spaces across multiple levels under uncertainty. The CoDE-MU framework is a machine learning-enhanced, robust co-design exploration framework that integrates robust, coupled compromise Decision Support Problem (rc-cDSP) construct with interpretable Self-Organizing Maps (iSOM). The framework supports multidisciplinary designers to (i) understand the multilevel interactions, (ii) identify the process mechanisms that affect material and product responses, and (iii) provide decision support for problems involving many goals with different behaviors across multiple levels and uncertainty. We use an industry-inspired hot rod rolling (HRR) steel manufacturing process chain problem to showcase the CoDE-MU framework’s efficacy in facilitating the simultaneous exploration of the product, material, and manufacturing process design spaces across multiple levels under uncertainty. The framework is generic and facilitates the co-design of multilevel PMMP systems characterized by hierarchical product-material-manufacturing process relations and many goals with different behaviors that must be realized simultaneously at individual levels.</p>","PeriodicalId":13604,"journal":{"name":"Integrating Materials and Manufacturing Innovation","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139064138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, thermal and defect simulations of sapphire growth in a simplified single-boule furnace are presented. The heat transfer in the furnace is modeled via ANSYS Fluent® by considering conduction, convection and radiation effects. A dislocation density-based crystal plasticity model is applied for the numerical simulation of dislocation evolution during the crystal growth of sapphire. The physical models are validated by using a temporal series of measurements in the real furnace geometry, which capture the crystal–melt interface position during the technological growth process. The growth rate and the shape of the crystal growth front are analyzed for different side and top heater powers which result in different thermal distributions in the furnace. It is found that the cooling flux at the crucible bottom wall determines to a great extent the growth profile in the first half of the growth stage. Only toward the end of the growth stage, different top and side power distributions induce different growth front shapes. The effect of the convexity of the growth surface on the generation of dislocation defects is investigated by the crystal plasticity model. The results of simulations show that the convexity of the growth surface has a significant effect on the generation of dislocations.</p>","PeriodicalId":13604,"journal":{"name":"Integrating Materials and Manufacturing Innovation","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138680938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
