  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 …
