A Study on Selection of Gas Metal Arc Welding Parameters of Fillet Joints Using Neural Network
신경회로망을 이용한 필릿 이음부의 가스메탈 아크용접변수 선정에 관한 연구
Abstract
The arc welding processes are substantially nonlinear, in addition to being highly coupled multivariable systems, Frequently, not all the variables affecting the welding quality are known, nor may they be easily quantified. From this point of view, decoupling between the welding parameters from the welding quality is very difficult, which makes it also difficult to control the welding parameters for obtaining the desired welding quality. In this study, a neural network based on the backpropagation algorithm was implemented and adopted for the selection of gas metal arc welding parameters of the fillet joint, that is, welding current, arc voltage and welding speed. The performance of the neural network for modeling the relationship between the welding quality and welding parameters was presented and evaluated by using the actual welding data. To obtain the optimal neural network structure, various types of the neural network structures were tested with the experimental data. It was revealed that the neural network can be effectively adopted to select the appropriate gas metal arc welding parameter of fillet joints for a given weld quality.
