However, the heterogeneous microstructure and unpredictable pore distribution of Al-Si high-pressure die castings result in significant variations in the mechanical properties, thus leading to a complicated microstructure-property relationship that is difficult to capture. Hence, a computational framework incorporating machine learning and crystal plasticity method is proposed. This framework aims to provide a systematic and comprehensive understanding of this relationship and enable the rapid prediction of macroscopic mechanical properties based on the microstructure. Firstly, we select eight variables that can effectively characterize the microstructural features and then obtain their statistical information. Subsequently, based on 160 samples obtained via the Latin hypercube sampling method, representative volume elements are constructed, and the crystal plasticity fast Fourier transformation method is executed to obtain the macroscopic mechanical properties. Next, the yield strength, elastic modulus, strength coefficient, and strain-hardening exponent are used to characterize the stress-strain curve, and Gaussian process regression models and microstructural variables are developed. Finally, sensitivity and univariate analyses based on these machine-learning models are performed to obtain insights into the microstructure-property relationships of the HPDC Al-Si alloy. The results show that the Gaussian process regression models exhibit high accuracy (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> greater than 0.84), thus confirming the viability of the proposed method.

Secondly, the three industrial benchmark DTs are constructed, and a Taguchi design of experiments (DoEs) methodology is put in place to develop the sensitivity analysis. Finally, after simulations the results are critically evaluated and the sensitivity of each benchmark to the different inputs (process parameter noise and BC parameter uncertainty) is studied.

A quantitative model of powder concentration distribution was developed based on the powder transport morphology obtained by high-speed photography.
