Abstract
En 中文
Machine learning approaches that integrate physical laws with data-driven models are transforming process optimization and quality assurance in polymer matrix composite manufacturing. This review synthesizes recent developments in neural metamodels for injection molding, spatio-temporal digital twins for resin infusion, and symbolic-regression surrogates for vacuum networks. Article identifies remaining challenges-such as extension to semicrystalline systems, uncertainty quantification under real-world noise, and deployment on industrial platforms-and outline strategies for addressing them. Building on these insights, a unified physics-informed surrogate concept is proposed that leverages temporal encoders, recurrent propagation, and multi-output decoders with embedded conservation constraints. This model is designed for rapid prediction of part quality metrics, cure state, flow front progression, and temperature fields, and supports gradient-based inversion for closed-loop control in advanced composite processing.
