ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK IN THE MODELLING OF THE EFFECT OF CHROMIUM DOPANTS ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF AL-4%CU ALLOY

Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to model the effect of Chromium dopants on the mechanical properties duralumin (Al-4 %Cu). The results showed that the hardness, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength increased, while the energy absorbed and percentage elongation decreased, with incr...

Description
Summary:Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to model the effect of Chromium dopants on the mechanical properties duralumin (Al-4 %Cu). The results showed that the hardness, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength increased, while the energy absorbed and percentage elongation decreased, with increasing %wt of Chromium dopants. Simulation results of ANN show strong agreement with experimental values, having satisfactory R-values of Mean Square Error. ANN can suitably be used to predict the mechanical properties of Al-4%Cu doped with Chromium.
