aiCAMstir: Artificial Intelligence based Computer Aided Manufacturing of Friction Stir Welds
It is difficult to choose and optimise the friction stir welding tool design and welding parameters for lap welding, as shown by many publications.[2]
Thus, the objective is to add a new aiCAMstir computer aided manufacturing control system to FSW machines, which recommends (or even automatically optimises) parameters based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element analysis (FEA), design of experiments (DOE), Wikipedia-like open source cloud data and artificial intelligence (AI) including machine learning.
An international collaborative project will be conducted for producing the next generation of lap welding tools, which overcome the problems caused by thinning and hooking.
A new set of tools will be evaluated and optimised by computational fluid dynamics regarding material flow.
The industrially funded project will be sponsored by a number of industrial companies from various industry sectors and leading universities and R&D organsations.
