Abstract

In this paper, an attempt has been made to apply the neural network (NN) techniques topredict the mechanical properties of friction stir welded composite materials. Nowadays, friction stri welding of composites are predominatally used in aerospace, automobile and shipbuilding applications. The welding process parameters like rotational speed, welding speed, tool pin profile and type of material play a foremost role in determining the weld strength of the base material. An error back propagation algorithm based model is developed to map the input and output relation of friction stir welded composite material. The proposed model is able to predict the joint strength with minimum error
