Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Additive manufacturing (AM) quality control relies on empirical approaches due to complex process-property relationships. While machine learning (ML) offers promising solutions, most approaches treat parameters independently without leveraging thermomechanical principles governing the properties of the printed materials. This is essential for understanding the behaviour of fused deposition modelling (FDM) printing. This study investigates whether integrating elementary thermomechanical knowledge into feature engineering improves mechanical property prediction for polylactic acid components under data-constrained conditions. Using 50 experimental samples from controlled printing conditions, three feature engineering strategies were systematically compared: raw process parameters, physics-informed features based on heat transfer and material flow principles, and polynomial interactions across five ML algorithms. Physics-informed features consistently outperformed baseline approaches, with Huber Regressor achieving coefficient of determination equal to 0.817 (51.3% improvement over raw parameters). Feature importance analysis using SHapley Additive exPlanations identified layer height and nozzle temperature as primary predictors, with engineered thermal diffusion and density features contributing significantly to model performance. This study demonstrates the potential of physics-informed feature engineering for improving prediction accuracy in data-constrained AM scenarios, providing methodological insights for thermomechanical integration and actionable guidance for industrial artificial intelligence (AI) implementation.
