This study aims to predict the impact of porosities on the variability of elongation in the casting Al-10Si-0.3Mg alloy using machine learning methods. Based on the dataset provided by finite element method (FEM) modeling, two machine learning algorithms including artificial neural network (ANN) and 3D convolutional neural network (3D CNN) were trained and compared to determine the optimal model. The results showed that the mean squared error (MSE) and determination coefficient (R2) of 3D CNN on the validation set were 0.01258/0.80, while those of ANN model were 0.28951/0.46. After obtaining the optimal prediction model, 3D CNN model was used to predict the elongation of experimental specimens. The elongation values obtained by experiments and FEM simulation were compared with that of 3D CNN model. The results showed that for samples with elongation smaller than 9.5%, both the prediction accuracy and efficiency of 3D CNN model surpassed those of FEM simulation.

Solid state joining processes are attractive for magnesium alloys as they can offer robust joints without the porosity issue typically associated with welding of magnesium and dissimilar materials. Among these techniques, Self-Piercing Riveting (SPR) is a clean, fast and cost-effective method widely employed in automotive industry for aluminum alloys. While SPR has been proven effective for joining aluminum and steel, it has yet to be successfully adapted for magnesium alloy castings. The primary challenge in developing magnesium SPR technology is the cracking of the magnesium button, which occurs due to magnesium's low formability at room temperature. Researchers and engineers approached this issue with several techniques, such as pre-heating, applying rotation to rivets, using a sacrificial layer and padded SPR. However, all these methods involve the employment of new equipment or introduction of extra processing steps. The aim of this work is to develop a SPR technique which adapts

The metal inert-gas (MIG) welding technique employed for aluminum alloy automotive bumpers involve a complex thermo-mechanical coupling process at elevated temperatures. Attaining a globally optimal set of model parameters continues to represent a pivotal objective in the pursuit of reliable constitutive models that can facilitate precise simulation of the welding process. In this study, a novel piecewise modified Johnson-Cook (MJ-C) constitutive model that incorporates the strain-temperature coupling has been proposed and developed. A quasi-static uniaxial tensile model of the specimen is constructed based on ABAQUS and its secondary development, with model parameters calibrated via the second-generation non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) method. A finite element simulation model for T-joint welding is subsequently established, upon which numerical simulation analyses of both the welding temperature field and post-welding deformation can be conducted. The results

The mechanical properties of materials play a crucial role in real life. However, methods to measure these properties are usually time-consuming and labour intensive. Small Punch Through (SPT) has non-destructive characteristics and can obtain load-displacement curves of specimens, but it cannot visually extract the mechanical properties of materials. Therefore, we designed a proprietary SPT experiment and fixture, built a finite element method (FEM) model and developed a multi-fidelity model capable of predicting the mechanical properties of steel and aluminium alloys. It makes use of multi-fidelity datasets obtained from SPT and FEM simulation experiments, and this integration allows us to support and optimize the predictive accuracy of the study, thus ensuring a comprehensive and reliable characterization of the mechanical properties of the materials. The model also takes into account variations in material thickness and can effectively predict the mechanical properties of materials

In new energy vehicles, aluminum alloy has gained prominence for its ability to achieve superior lightweight properties. During the automotive design phase, accurately predicting and simulating structural performance can effectively reduce costs and enhance efficiency. Nevertheless, the acquisition of accurate material parameters for precise predictive simulations presents a substantial challenge. The Johnson-Cook model is widely utilized in the automotive industry for impact and molding applications due to its simplicity and effectiveness. However, variations in material composition, processing techniques, and manufacturing methods of aluminum alloy can lead to differences in material properties. Additionally, components are constantly subjected to complex stress states during actual service. Conventional parameter calibration methods primarily rely on quasi-static and dynamic tensile tests, offering limited scope in addressing compression scenarios. This paper proposes an inversion

Since aluminum alloys (AA) are widely used as structural components across various industries, higher requirements for shape-design, load-bearing, and energy-absorption capacity have been put forward. In this paper, we present the development of a numerical model, integrated with a compensation method, that effectively predicts processing defects in the bumper beam of a vehicle, resulting in a marked improvement in its forming quality. Specifically, different constitutive models are investigated for their applicability to the beam, enabling a precise evaluation of its structural performance under large deformation. The Johnson-Cook failure model is introduced to better characterize the fracture behavior of the beam under severe structural damage. The three-point bending experiment served as a rigorous examination, demonstrating good consistency between the experimental and simulation results. Furthermore, a prediction model for assessing the forming quality during the bending process

Reduction of frictional losses by changing the surface roughness in the form of surface textures has been reported as an effective method in reducing friction in the boundary regime of lubrication. Laser-based micro texturing has been mostly used to create these texture patterns and it is reported that it can reduce the frictional resistance by ~20-50%. However, the use of laser-based techniques for texture preparation led to residual thermal stress and micro cracks on the surfaces. Hence, the current study emphasizes using conventional micromachining on piston material (Al alloy Al4032) to overcome this limitation. Three variations of semi-hemispherical geometries were prepared on the surface of Al alloy with dimple depths of 15, 20 and 40 μm and dimple diameters of 90, 120 and 240 μm. Prepared textured surfaces with untextured surfaces are compared in terms of wear, wettability, and friction characteristics based on Stribeck curve behaviors. Results of this investigation demonstrated

The significant mechanical features of aluminum alloy, including cost-effectiveness, lightweight, durability, high reliability, and easy maintenance, have made it an essential component of the automobile industry. Automobile parts including fuel tanks, cylinder heads, intake manifolds, brake elements, and engine blocks are made of aluminum alloy. The primary causes of its engineering failure are fatigue and fracture. Aluminum alloys' fatigue resistance is frequently increased by surface strengthening methods like ultrasonic shot peening (USP). This article discusses the shot peening dynamics analysis and the influence of ultrasonic shot peening parameters on material surface modification using the DEM-FEM coupling method. Firstly, the projectile motion characteristics under different processes are simulated and analyzed by EDEM. The projectile dynamics characteristics are imported into Ansys software to realize DEM-FEM coupling analysis, and the surface modification characteristics of
