An artificial neural network-based model for roping prediction in aluminum alloy sheet
Acta Materialia(2022)
摘要
Roping is a common macroscopic surface defect in AA6XXX aluminum alloy sheets resulting from the three-dimensional (3-D) spatial distribution of specific textures. The crystal plasticity finite element model (CPFEM) has been applied to study roping behavior and achieves good agreement with experimental observations but suffers from expensive computational consumption due to large-area and multi-layer characteristics of the roping phenomenon. In the present work, an artificial neural network-based (ANN) model is developed to predict thickness strain and corresponding surface roping under tensile deformation. A 3-D artificial orientation map generation algorithm is proposed and combined with CPFEM to produce reliable datasets to train, test, and validate the ANN model. The layer-by-layer random texture replacement strategy is adopted for dataset generation and facilitates the ANN model to capture the effects of individual layer textures on the thickness strain. A novel exponential weight loss function is also introduced to solve the imbalance problem of texture components. The ANN-based model demonstrates good prediction capability and generalizability in multiple validation cases with various artificial and experimental textures. The proposed ANN-based model provides an efficient and accurate alternative to the conventional physics-based method for roping analysis in aluminum alloy and can be also applied to similar microstructure-related deformation prediction in other materials.
