  Development of Neuromorphic Polymer Composites Using IoT Sensing and Brain-Inspired Learning Algorithms

  By Praveena Murala, Pranashi Chakraborty, P. Devendran, T. Venkat Narayana Rao, G. Anil Kumar, G. Nagaraj

  Abstract: This research aims to develop neuromorphic polymer composites by combining conductive sensing materials, IoT-based sensing data collection and brain-inspired learning models for adaptive response. Hybrid conductive polymer composites were developed by adding carbon nanofibers and graphene Nano platelets to a thermoplastic polymer. IoT sensors (strain, temperature) were employed to collect real-time sensing data that was combined with environmental data. A material-aware neuromorphic learning algorithm was created with event-driven spike coding …

  AI-Enabled Optimization of Additively Manufactured Composite Materials for Enhanced Mechanical and Thermal Performance

  By G. Nagaraj, P. Girish, Pallavi Hallappanavar Basavaraja, Anusha Preetham, G. Anil Kumar, D. Gouse Peera

  Abstract: This paper discusses the optimization of multi-objective optimization of enhanced coupling of heat and mechanical properties of 3D printed polymer composite materials by artificial intelligence (AI), as a component of a multi-objective optimization framework. It aims at development of nonlinear printing parameters and material properties relationships to achieve maximum tensile strength and thermal conductivity in polymer composites produced through fused deposition modeling (FDM). Short carbon fiber reinforcement was used to …
