[0049] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following detailed description of the specific implementation manners of the present invention will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specification.

[0050] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation manner of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0052] Referring to Figure 1 - Figure 2 , in one embodiment of the present invention, a lightweight method for a laser powder bed fusion formed titanium alloy gradient lattice structure is provided. This method includes the following steps:

[0053] Step 1: Construct a titanium alloy gradient lattice database, which includes: parameters of different lattice topologies, mechanical properties, and the influence on the final forming quality under various process parameters;

[0054] Step 2: Based on the data obtained from the database, establish an intelligent optimization model by using the generative adversarial network + reinforcement learning method.

[0055] Among them, the generative adversarial network is responsible for simulating lightweight design solutions under various working conditions. Specifically: the generative adversarial network includes a generator G ( z; θ G) and a discriminator D ( X; θ D) , where the generator G ( z; θ G) generates a potential lattice structure X according to the input noise, that is, random data z gen , and the discriminator D ( X; θ D ) outputs a probability value based on the generated lattice structure X gen to determine whether the lattice structure is real;

[0056] By minimizing the optimization objective function L GANTo promote continuous improvement of both the generator and the discriminator, the generator will ultimately generate a realistic lattice structure, where the optimization objective function L GAN is expressed as:

[0057]

[0058] where D ( X ) represents the output of the discriminator, and G ( z ) represents the output of the generator.

[0059] Reinforcement learning is responsible for adjusting the unit cell parameters to optimize the lattice while ensuring both structural strength and minimizing weight to the greatest extent. The training objective of the intelligent optimization model is to generate a feasible structure X opt that meets the requirements of SLM (Selective Laser Melting) manufacturing; specifically: Based on the lattice scheme generated by the generative adversarial network, reinforcement learning is used to adjust the structural parameters to minimize the mass while ensuring mechanical properties, specifically:

[0060] S201: Define: State S t = X t as the current lattice structure parameters; State A t is the adjustment amount of the lattice structure parameters, and the reward function R t = -λ 1 L mech (S t ) - λ 2 L mass (S t ) + λ 3 L SLM (S t );

[0061] where L mech (S t ) represents the constrained mechanical properties (such as mechanical strength loss); L mass (S t ) represents the restricted weight condition (such as the value higher than the target weight), and L SLM (S t ) represents the feasibility loss of the lattice structure SLM (such as manufacturing error); λ 1 , λ 2 , λ 3 represent the corresponding weight coefficients respectively;

[0062] S202: Optimize the policy π θ = (A t |S t ) through the policy gradient method to maximize the cumulative reward, and the process is expressed as:

[0063]

[0064] Among them, γ t represents the discount factor, which is used to balance short-term and long-term benefits.

[0065] Step 3: Optimize the lattice forming quality based on the SLM process parameters. In this embodiment, the SLM forming gradient lattice process parameters are set as follows: laser power 210W, scanning speed 1200mm / s. In the scanning strategy, contour scanning is not performed, the spot diameter is 0.1mm, the scanning spacing is 0.12mm, the powder spreading layer thickness is 0.03mm, and the steel scraper spreads the powder unidirectionally. The forming chamber is formed in an environment with high-purity argon as the protective gas. Under these process conditions, the forming density can reach 99.96%, and the surface roughness is about 8μm. The multi-objective optimization algorithm is used to globally optimize the generated intelligent lattice structure.

[0066] Specifically, the multi-objective optimization algorithm is the NSGA-II algorithm, including:

[0067] S301: Use the multiple lightweight lattice structure design schemes obtained in Step 2 as the initial solutions.

[0068] S302: Calculate the performance of each solution on all objectives, respectively:

[0069] Calculate the manufacturing quality loss f opt of the lattice structure X 1 (X);

[0070]

[0071] Among them, N c represents the total number of lattice units; V defect,i represents the defect volume of the i-th unit cell; V total,i represents the total volume of the i-th unit cell;

[0072] Calculate the thermal stress accumulation f opt caused by the laser scanning path of the lattice structure X 2 (X);

[0073]

[0074] Among them, Ω represents the volume of the lattice structure, represents the temperature gradient;

[0075] Calculate the complexity f opt of the laser scanning path of the lattice structure X 3 (X), and all of them are better when they are smaller.

[0076]

[0077] Among them, N s represents the number of scanning segments, and d i represents the scanning length of the i-th segment, and E i represents the energy density of the i-th segment.

[0078] Suppose that step two generates 3 lightweight design schemes. At this time, the 3 design schemes correspond to 3 candidate solutions as the initial solutions.

[0079] S303: Divide the solutions into multiple levels according to the relative superiority of the objective function; taking the above table data as an example, calculate the objective function values of each solution and perform non-dominated sorting to divide the solutions into multiple Pareto levels:

[0080] Level 1: No solution can completely dominate them (the set of optimal solutions);

[0081] Level 2: Dominated by the solutions in Level 1 but superior to Level 3.

[0082] S304: Calculate the crowding degree for each solution, that is, the density of the solution in the Pareto Front of the frontier solutions, to avoid the algorithm falling into local optimality. The calculation method of the crowding degree is to calculate the crowding distance of the solution, and the calculation method is:

[0083]

[0084] Among them, M represents the number of initial solutions, represents the value of adjacent solutions for the current objective f j , represents the current objective f j and the maximum and minimum values on it.

[0085] S305: Then generate a new generation of solutions through the mechanism of the genetic algorithm. The genetic operations generally include: Selection: Select excellent solutions from the Pareto levels, and better solutions are more likely to be selected. Crossover: Randomly select two solutions and generate new solutions by combining some parameters; Mutation: Apply small random perturbations to some parameters to increase the population diversity.

[0086] After multiple iterations of optimization: Repeat non-dominated sorting → calculate the crowding degree → selection, crossover, mutation until the algorithm converges. NSGA-II will converge to a Pareto Front, that is, a set of optimal design schemes, and the user can select the most suitable scheme from them.

[0087] Test the final optimal lattice structure. The test indicators include: dimensional accuracy test, mechanical property test, density detection, and surface roughness measurement. Through the test, evaluate the reliability of the optimization model. If a certain indicator does not meet the standard, feedback to the previous steps for adjustment.

[0088] In summary, the present invention combines generative adversarial networks (GANs) and reinforcement learning (RL) to accurately simulate and optimize lattice structures under different working conditions. Through the adjustment of the unit cell size by reinforcement learning, it is possible to achieve the maximum degree of lightweighting while ensuring structural strength. This optimization process takes into account both the mechanical properties and lightweighting requirements of the structure in theory and practical applications, providing a new design concept that cannot be offered by the prior art. The present invention calculates the objective function values such as the manufacturing quality loss, thermal stress, and scanning path optimization of individuals, reduces the thermal stress generated during the laser scanning process, reduces the risk of deformation and cracks caused by thermal stress, and ensures the stability of the structure. It also optimizes the manufacturing quality loss and the complexity of the laser scanning path, significantly improving the manufacturing efficiency, reducing energy consumption, and enhancing the production cost-effectiveness.
