Machine Learning Models for Predicting and Classifying the Tensile Strength of Polymeric Films Fabricated via Different Production Processes.

ABSTRACT: In this study, machine learning algorithms (MLA) were employed to predict and classify the tensile strength of polymeric films of different compositions as a function of processing conditions. Two film production techniques were investigated, namely compression molding and extrusion-blow molding. Multi-factor experiments were designed with corresponding parameters. A tensile test was conducted on samples and the tensile strength was recorded. Predictive and classification models from nine MLA were developed. Performance analysis demonstrated the superior predictive ability of the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm, in which a coefficient of determination and mean absolute percentage error of 96% and 4%, respectively were obtained for the extrusion-blow molded films. The classification performance of the MLA was also evaluated, with several algorithms exhibiting excellent performance.

Project description:The additive manufacturing of concrete, also known as 3D-printed concrete, is produced layer by layer using a 3D printer. The three-dimensional printing of concrete offers several benefits compared to conventional concrete construction, such as reduced labor costs and wastage of materials. It can also be used to build complex structures with high precision and accuracy. However, optimizing the mix design of 3D-printed concrete is challenging, involving numerous factors and extensive hit-and-trail experimentation. This study addresses this issue by developing predictive models, such as the Gaussian Process Regression model, Decision Tree Regression model, Support Vector Machine model, and XGBoost Regression models. The input parameters were water (Kg/m3), cement (Kg/m3), silica fume (Kg/m3), fly ash (Kg/m3), coarse aggregate (Kg/m3 & mm for diameter), fine aggregate (Kg/m3 & mm for diameter), viscosity modifying agent (Kg/m3), fibers (Kg/m3), fiber properties (mm for diameter and MPa for strength), print speed (mm/sec), and nozzle area (mm2), while target properties were the flexural and tensile strength of concrete (MPa data from 25 literature studies were collected. The water/binder ratio used in the dataset ranged from 0.27 to 0.67. Different types of sands and fibers have been used, with fibers having a maximum length of 23 mm. Based upon the Coefficient of Determination (R2), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Square Error (MSE), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) for casted and printed concrete, the SVM model performed better than other models. All models' cast and printed flexural strength values were also correlated. The model's performance has also been checked on six different mix proportions from the dataset to show its accuracy. It is worth noting that the lack of ML-based predictive models for the flexural and tensile properties of 3D-printed concrete in the literature makes this study a novel innovation in the field. This model could reduce the computational and experimental effort required to formulate the mixed design of printed concrete.

Project description:Physics-informed modeling (PIM) using advanced machine learning (ML) represents a paradigm shift in the field of concrete technology, offering a potent blend of scientific rigor and computational efficiency. By harnessing the synergies between physics-based principles and data-driven algorithms, PIM-ML not only streamlines the design process but also enhances the reliability and sustainability of concrete structures. As research continues to refine these models and validate their performance, their adoption promises to revolutionize how concrete materials are engineered, tested, and utilized in construction projects worldwide. In this research work, an extensive literature review, which produced a global representative database for the splitting tensile strength (Fsp) of recycled aggregate concrete, was indulged. The studied concrete components such as C, W, NCAg, PL, RCAg_D, RCAg_P, RCAg_wa, Vf, and F_type were measured and tabulated. The collected 257 records were partitioned into training set of 200 records (80%) and validation set of 57 records (20%) in line with a more reliable partitioning of database. Five advanced machine learning techniques created using the "Weka Data Mining" software version 3.8.6 were applied to predict the Fsp and the Hoffman & Gardener method and performance metrics were also used to evaluate the sensitivity and performance of the variables and ML models, respectively. The results show the Kstar model demonstrates the highest level of performance and reliability among the models, achieving exceptional accuracy with an R2 of 0.96 and Accuracy of 94%. Its RMSE and MAE are both low at 0.15 MPa, indicating minimal deviations between predicted and actual values. Additional metrics such as WI (0.99), NSE (0.96), and KGE (0.96) further confirm the model's superior efficiency and consistent performance, making it the most dependable tool for practical applications. Also the sensitivity analysis shows that Water content (W) exerts the most significant impact at 40%, demonstrating that the amount of water in the mix is a critical factor for achieving optimal tensile strength. This underscores the need for careful water management to balance workability and strength in sustainable concrete production. Coarse natural aggregate (NCAg) has a substantial impact of 38%, indicating its essential role in maintaining the structural integrity of the concrete mix.
