AI-Driven Inverse Design of Functionally Graded Bio-Nanocomposites for Sustainable High-Barrier Packaging
Abstract: Multilayer plastic packaging realizes high barrier performance through laminated heterogeneous structures, but the heterogeneous structure has severe end-of-life challenges caused by the interfacial incompatibility of materials and the poor recyclability. This study proposes the inverse design of functionally graded PLA-nanoclay composite films by reinforcement learning as a monolithic alternative to traditional multilayer systems. Twin-screw extrusion is designed as a continuous control Markov decision process, and proximal policy optimization (PPO) is …

Numerical Investigation of AA5053 Through Equal Channel Angular Pressing Technique: An Overview
Abstract: Equal channel angular pressing is recognized as the predominant method for bulk severe plastic deformation processing and has been employed for refining the grain structure in numerous metals and alloys. This study utilized finite element analysis to examine the processing of metallic billets through simple shear deformation. For the study, the die channel angle was chosen based on achieving the minimum energy consumption to induce maximum uniform strain. Among the …

Educating Compilers to Learn: Utilizing Machine Learning for More Brilliant Code Optimization
Abstract: This study explores the use of machine learning (ML) approaches to compiler optimization. The now-traditional static compilation techniques are transformed into adaptive, dynamic systems capable of making context-specific advancements. Traditional compilers rely mostly on heuristic or rule-based optimization techniques. While these techniques work well in general cases, they consistently fail to adapt well within the limits of code structures that modern machines display. This limitation is especially acute in today's …

Autonomous Agentic AI for Adaptive Cure Optimization and Defect Prevention in Thermoset Polymer Composite Manufacturing
Abstract: Thermoset polymer composites occupy a central position in modern structural manufacturing, from aircraft fuselages to wind-turbine blades. Despite progress in resin chemistry and fiber architecture, the “cure process” that transforms compliant preforms into load-bearing structures remains difficult to manage. Manufacturers encounter ‘voids’, “interlaminar delaminations”, and “spring-back distortion” when curing complex or thick-section parts. The cause is not ignorance of the relevant physics, but rather that ‘temperature’, ‘chemistry’, ‘rheology’, and ‘mechanics’ …
