A Real-Time Serial Fuzzy-Based Model For The Simulation Of The Mechanical Behaviours Of Gamma Irradiated 3D Printed Specimens

Gamma irradiation has been employed in various areas. The effects of ionizing radiation on thermal, mechanical and chemical properties need to be carefully investigated and modelled, particularly, for 3D printed specimens which have been extensively utilized nowadays. However, these properties need to be examined in real-time, this being due to the post-irradiation impacts resulted from free radicals. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel serial fuzzy-based framework. The idea of this framework stems from (i) the need to monitor the properties on real-time bases; (ii) the dynamic behaviour of the 3D printing processes; (iii) that data may not be sufficient at early stages; and (iv) the need to investigate the model behaviours in the spaces. To develop such a model, a serial framework that consists of type-1 fuzzy logic systems is designed to map the irradiation and 3D printing parameters to the mechanical …
