Therefore, precise and efficient assessment of microhardness and residual stress is vital for the successful implementation of LSP in industrial applications. In this paper, we propose a physics-informed machine learning (ML) model to address these assessment challenges and accurately predict the residual stress and microhardness of metallic materials after LSP. Firstly, different physical parameters are determined according to their corresponding mechanisms, and ABAQUS software is used to resolve the attenuation characteristics of shock waves induced by lasers. Subsequently, these identified physical parameters are utilized as input features for the artificial neural networks (ANN) model in order to forecast residual stress and microhardness. The predicted results reveal that our model exhibits a high level of precision in predicting microhardness (correlation coefficient of 0.99935) and residual stress (correlation coefficient of 0.99562) for a wide range of materials subjected to LSP. By comparing our physics-informed ML model with the traditional ANN models and empirical formula, its superior performance is effectively demonstrated in terms of accuracy and effectiveness (lower error and higher precision). Its superiority lies in the effective integration of ML methods’ representational capabilities with the combination of domain knowledge and physical understanding. This approach not only establishes a robust theoretical foundation for predicting these behaviors but also holds great promise for practical applications in industries that utilize LSP due to the universality for various materials.","PeriodicalId":19597,"journal":{"name":"Optics & Laser Technology","volume":"148 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142219871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The distance between the position of the droplet falling into the molten pool and the keyhole was statistically analyzed to determine the effect of the change in the droplet transfer behavior on welding stability. Results revealed that a strong reactive force from metal vapor was generated as the laser power exceeded 6.5 kW, causing the droplet transfer trajectory to shift, which enhanced welding stability. The stability of the keyhole became worse when the laser power was increased to 9.5 kW. As the arc power increased from 4096 to 6860 W, the droplet transfer mode appeared as a mixed transfer mode dominated by globular droplet transfer, projected droplet transfer, and spray droplet transfer. A single-spray droplet transfer mode was discerned when the arc power exceeded 7394 W. In this regard, the increased arc power will enhance the stability of the welding process. Excessively large or small values will lead to poor welding stability, with the former attributed to the strong mutual interference between the laser and arc and the latter ascribed to the weakened attraction of the laser to the arc. Moreover, arc stability and droplet transfer frequency decreased with an increasing welding speed.","PeriodicalId":19597,"journal":{"name":"Optics & Laser Technology","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142219875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The investigation results showed that the optical response at the imaginary part peak of the dielectric constant and optical conductivity of the defective rGO-like films increased and red-shifted from 5.4 to 5.1 eV with the increase of defect states, indicating the enhancement of photon energy absorption associated with the resonance exciton effect.

However, when the DIC method uses a small resolution camera to measure large-sized objects, the resolution of speckle images will decrease. This not only leads to a decrease in the resolution of the measured deformation field, but also reduces the speckle size in the image, resulting in a decrease in measurement accuracy. To improve the resolution of the speckle image, we propose a deep learning-based speckle image super-resolution approach, named Speckle-SRGAN. Speckle-SRGAN is designed based on the high-frequency and fine texture characteristics of speckle images, and it introduces coordinate attention mechanism and global depth residual module to preserve high-frequency and fine textures. Low resolution speckle images are processed by Speckle-SRGAN to transform into high-resolution speckle images with high fidelity. Simulation and experimental results show that Speckle-SRGAN can increase the resolution of speckle image by 4 times and the speckle is smooth without loss of details. The real experiment also shows that using our method to preprocess speckle images can reduce the measurement error of traditional DIC methods by about 0.01 pixels.

To investigate the causes and solutions of the above problems, the pillar diameter threshold that does not generate thermal accumulation under different laser modes was calculated by numerical simulation in this paper, which reveals the generation mechanism of thermal accumulation in the melting process of columnar samples. The effects of pillar diameter and laser mode on the microstructure and mechanical properties of AlSi10Mg prepared by L-PBF were also investigated experimentally. The experimental and simulation results show that in the continuous wave (CW) laser mode, as the diameter decreases, the solidification rate of the molten pool decreases, the size of the heat affected zone (HAZ) increases, and the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and elongation after fracture (EL) decrease significantly. The microstructure of the submillimeter struts can be well modulated using a pulsed wave (PW) laser, and the sample strength can be increased by 12 %. The EL of the tensile samples in this study depended on the diameter of the sample, and there was no significant correlation with the laser mode. The experimental results regulate the size effect in additive manufacturing and improve the mechanical properties of metal mini-truss structures.","PeriodicalId":19597,"journal":{"name":"Optics & Laser Technology","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142219869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
