Prediction model for hardness and tensile strength of graphene reinforced AZ 61 alloy based composite using Metaheuristic Algorithm

Abstract

It is possible to produce improved material performance through the utilization of computational intelligence approaches such as genetic algorithms optimization technique which are discussed in this paper. The optimization of processes and the development of models that are driven by data are the key uses of these technologies. This article offers a comprehensive introduction of the topic of materials and discusses the ways in which computational intelligence techniques might be utilized to develop new materials. The present study envisages the development of data driven model that enables to derive desirable properties of the said composite; so, in order to secure the optimized subset of requirements (process parameters), a metaheuristic optimization tool is employed. We invoke the use of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimizing tool in association with linear regression, so as to achieve the best combination of hardness and tensile strength of AZ61 graphene nanoplate (GNP) composite.
