A novel multi-objective optimization intelligent technique applied to the design and manufacturing process of advanced transformation-induced plasticity aided martensitic steel
摘要
In order to optimize the manufacture of an advanced transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP)-aided martensitic steel, a novel kernel-based gradient evolution approach is integrated into the multi-objective adaptative memory procedure and combined with a support vector regression model. To achieve this, a number of heat treatments are carried out at a temperature that is appropriate for manufacturing galvanized steel. Thus, the most critical process variables (cooling rates and a galvanizing temperature isothermal holding period) were tuned to provide the required mechanical property values. Generally speaking, the support vector regression model is taken as the goal function since it represents the extremely nonlinear relationship between the experimental parameters and the desired mechanical properties in a reasonable way. Additionally, the proposed method exhibits an exceptional performance with respect to the well-known multi-objective genetic algorithm, since it discovered a robust, wide Pareto front. Additionally, the ranges of the manufacturing variables recommended to produce transformation-induced plasticity-assisted martensitic steels are 57–63
