A Convolutional Neural Network (Cnn) For Defect Detection Of Additively Manufactured Parts, Musarrat Farzana Rahman Jan 2022

A Convolutional Neural Network (Cnn) For Defect Detection Of Additively Manufactured Parts, Musarrat Farzana Rahman

Masters Theses

“Additive manufacturing (AM) is a layer-by-layer deposition process to fabricate parts with complex geometries. The formation of defects within AM components is a major concern for critical structural and cyclic loading applications. Understanding the mechanisms of defect formation and identifying the defects play an important role in improving the product lifecycle. The convolutional neural network (CNN) has been demonstrated to be an effective deep learning tool for automated detection of defects for both conventional and AM processes. A network with optimized parameters including proper data processing and sampling can improve the performance of the architecture. In this study, for the …


Industry 4.0 Remanufacturing: A Novel Approach Towards Smart Remanufacturing, Prashansa Ragampeta Jan 2022

Industry 4.0 Remanufacturing: A Novel Approach Towards Smart Remanufacturing, Prashansa Ragampeta

Masters Theses

“Smart remanufacturing has become more popular in recent years as a result of its multiple benefits and the growing need for society to encourage a circular economy that leads to sustainability. One of the most common end-of-life (EoL) choices that can lead to a circular economy is remanufacturing. As a result, at the end-of-life stage of a product, it is critical to prioritize this choice over other accessible options because it is the only recovery option that retains the same quality as a new product. This work focuses on the numerous technologies that can aid in the improvement of smart …
