Image-Based Crack Morphology Characterisation for Electrical Failure Analysis in Conductive Polymer Composites
Abstract: Electrical performance in conductive polymer composites is strongly governed by crack-network evolution, yet failure analysis typically relies on qualitative image inspection or electrical anomaly detection in isolation. This work proposes an end-to-end framework that converts optical/SEM crack imagery into a standardised crack morphology signature and quantitatively links it to electrical degradation indicators. A two-stage learning strategy is adopted: crack-representation pretraining using the public Concrete Crack Images for Classification dataset, followed …

Machine Learning-Based Quantification of Polymer Structure Property Relationships for Predictive Material Design
Abstract: Polymer structures exhibit complex, hierarchical arrangements that strongly influence macroscopic properties, yet consistent quantification remains challenging due to nonlinear interactions and limited unified modeling strategies. Existing approaches inadequately capture generalized structure–property mappings across diverse polymer systems. This research aims to establish a machine learning-based quantification model for polymer structure–property relationships to support predictive material design. A Polymer Structure Property Dataset of 5,000 polymer samples includes structural descriptors and experimentally measured …

Effect of machining parameters on the tool wear in drilling of 3D PF C/C composite
Abstract: Carbon–carbon (C/C) composites are broadly used in aerospace, defence, shipbuilding, chemical, and nuclear industries owing to their high strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios. However, they are brittle, anisotropic and non-homogeneous in nature, making them difficult to machine. Incorrect machining parameters can cause defects such as burrs, delamination, and fibre bundles pullout. This paper aims to study the hole surface and tool wear during drilling of 3D pierced fabric (PF) carbon-carbon (C/C) …
