[0047] The present application aims to provide a flame-retardant performance prediction method for fiber-reinforced composite materials, which uses data-driven methods to quickly and accurately predict the flame-retardant performance of fiber-reinforced composite materials, helps optimize material ratios and production processes, and improves production efficiency and product quality.
[0048] Embodiment 1
[0049] Specifically, in combination with Figure 1As shown, the application provides a method for predicting the flame retardant performance of a glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite material, comprising the following steps:
[0050] Step S1) Data set construction and preprocessing
[0051] S101) Data collection
[0052] Experimental data of the glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite material is collected, including parameters of glass fiber, parameters of flame retardant, parameters of resin, and flame retardant performance.
[0053] The parameters of glass fiber include fiber diameter and volume fraction; the parameters of flame retardant include flame retardant type, decomposition temperature and volume fraction; the parameters of resin include polypropylene brand, viscosity and decomposition temperature; the flame retardant performance includes limiting oxygen index, 12s vertical burning length and extinguishing time.
[0054] In some specific embodiments, the fiber diameter of the glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite material is 11 μm, the volume fraction is 30-47 vol%; the flame retardant type of the flame retardant parameter is phosphorus flame retardant, the decomposition temperature is 250-350℃, the volume fraction is 5%-10 vol%; the resin parameter is polypropylene, the viscosity is 1.05-2.00 deciliter / gram, the decomposition temperature is 350-370℃; the limiting oxygen index of the flame retardant performance is in the range of 28%-35%, the 12s vertical burning length is 5cm-15cm, and the extinguishing time is 5s-15s.
[0055] In addition to experimental data, existing literature and patent data, tool books and public material databases (such as NIST, Polymer Database) need to be collected, and material attribute data such as fiber characteristics, thermal conductivity and flame retardant decomposition temperature are introduced to enhance the feature dimension. The decomposition behavior of different flame retardants is simulated by using thermodynamic model (such as Kissinger equation) to generate virtual samples.
[0056] S102) Data preprocessing
[0057] The data obtained in S101) is standardized and preprocessed, which includes normalizing the numerical type data, converting the text type data into digital form by one-hot encoding, or using embedding layer to map into low-dimensional dense vector instead of traditional one-hot encoding, capturing the potential correlation between materials, and comprehensively checking the missing values and abnormal values in the processed data. After processing, it can also be judged according to the data dimension of standardization processing, when the standardized data amount exceeds 1000 and the dimension exceeds 10, the dimension reduction processing is carried out.
[0058] For the numerical data of raw material ratio and flame retardant performance, a normalization method is used to convert data of different dimensions to the same scale so that the neural network model can learn effectively. In some embodiments, the normalization method uses Z-score standardization method or Min-Max normalization method.
[0059] The fiber type, flame retardant type, resin type, raw material ratio and flame retardant performance data are comprehensively checked to identify and process missing values and outliers. For the case of missing values in the collected data, mean filling or interpolation method is used to ensure data integrity. And by data denoising, outliers are removed. In some embodiments, data deviating more than 3 times the standard deviation from the mean is considered as an outlier and is removed. Dimensionality reduction processing uses principal component analysis (PCA) or t-SNE dimensionality reduction method to reduce data dimension.
[0060] S103) Constructing a data set
[0061] The standardized parameters of glass fiber, flame retardant parameters and resin parameters are used as variable parameters, and the flame retardant performance under different values of these variable parameters is used to construct a sample data set. The sample data set contains at least 200 sample data.
[0062] S2) DNN neural network model construction
[0063] S201) DNN neural network structure design
[0064] The deep neural network (DNN) structure includes input layer, hidden layer and output layer.
[0065] The feature variables received by the input layer are the variable parameters in the data set obtained in step S1). The hidden layer consists of 3-5 fully connected layers, each containing 64-256 neurons. In some embodiments, the hidden layer uses ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit) activation function to improve the nonlinear fitting ability of the model; in some embodiments, BatchNormalization is introduced to accelerate convergence and prevent gradient disappearance. The output layer is used to predict the flame retardant performance of glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite material, and the flame retardant performance indicators are limiting oxygen index, 12s vertical burning length and extinguishing time.
[0066] On the basis of the above DNN neural network structure, a multi-channel hybrid DNN structure is further constructed, including a numerical feature processing channel and a category feature processing channel, and the features are fused and outputted.
[0067] Numerical feature processing channel: the numerical features in the data set obtained in step S1 are input into a fully connected layer (FC), including the fiber diameter and volume fraction of glass fiber, the decomposition temperature and volume fraction of flame retardant, the viscosity and decomposition temperature of resin, and other raw material ratio and physical property data. The fully connected layer is composed of 3 layers, and the number of neurons in each layer is 128, 64, and 32 respectively. The fully connected layer realizes deep feature extraction and nonlinear transformation of numerical features.
[0068] Category feature processing channel: for the category features in the data set, including glass fiber type, flame retardant type, polypropylene resin type, etc., the low-dimensional dense vectors are mapped through an embedding layer, and a bidirectional long short-term memory network (Bi-LSTM) is used for feature extraction processing. The network structure of the Bi-LSTM containing 2 layers of hidden layers is constructed, and the number of hidden units in each layer is 64. The sequence dependence relationship between different category features is captured through the Bi-LSTM network, so as to mine the synergistic effect between the flame retardant and the glass fiber and the resin.
[0069] Feature fusion and output: on the basis of the outputs of the numerical feature processing channel and the category feature processing channel, an attention mechanism is introduced.
[0070] The outputs of the fully connected layer and the Bi-LSTM are taken as the inputs of the attention mechanism. The outputs of different channels are dynamically weighted through the attention mechanism, and the feature combination that plays a key role in predicting the flame retardant performance (limiting oxygen index, 12s vertical burning length and extinguishing time) of the glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin composite material is automatically focused. Finally, the weighted and fused features are input into the output layer for flame retardant performance prediction.
[0071] S202) Model training
[0072] 80% of the sample data set is used as the training set, 10% is used as the validation set, and 10% is used as the test set. The parameters of glass fiber, flame retardant parameters, and resin parameters are used as input data, and the flame retardant performance is used as output data. With the help of the training set, the DNN neural network is trained.
[0073] Before the training work is carried out, the weights and biases of the DNN neural network are initialized. The loss function and optimization algorithm are defined, wherein the mean square error (MSE) is used as the loss function to measure the error between the predicted flame retardant performance of the model and the actual optimal flame retardant performance. In order to improve the physical rationality of the model, a thermodynamic constraint term can be introduced into the loss function, such as making the predicted limiting oxygen index (LOI) of the model and the stability index such as the thermal decomposition temperature of the fiber or the resin maintain a positive correlation.
[0074] The optimization process adopts the stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm and its variants as the optimization algorithm, such as using the Adam optimization algorithm to adaptively adjust the learning rate and accelerate the model convergence speed; or introducing the gradient penalty matrix of Wasserstein GAN to force the model to generate a predicted distribution that conforms to the flame retardant mechanism, and improve the physical consistency of the predicted results generated by the model with the flame retardant mechanism.
[0075] The training set is divided into several batches, each batch containing a certain number of samples, such as 32 samples per batch. In each training step, the gradient is calculated from the current batch of data, and the weights and biases of the neural network are updated. During the training process, monitoring is performed, and the loss values of the training set and the validation set are calculated regularly, and the loss curve is plotted. Model convergence judgment, when the model is considered to have reached a state of convergence, stop training. The model convergence judgment can use the Early Stopping strategy, for example, if the validation set loss function does not decrease for 10 consecutive rounds, stop training.
[0076] S3) Model verification and testing
[0077] S301) Model performance evaluation
[0078] The trained DNN neural network is tested for effectiveness using the validation set, and the prediction error of the model on the validation set is calculated. If the error exceeds the preset range, check if the data is abnormal, adjust the model structure and retrain.
[0079] Calculate the mean square error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination (R²), etc.
[0080] The DNN neural network model that passes the verification is used to perform prediction verification on the test set, and the model prediction results are compared with the actual test results to evaluate the accuracy and generalization ability of the model. If the model performs worse than expected on the prediction set, further optimize the model, and the optimization methods include increasing the amount of sample data, adjusting the model structure or optimizing the training algorithm.
[0081] S4) Flame retardant performance prediction application
[0082] S401) Data input
[0083] Obtain the information of the fiber type, flame retardant type, resin type, raw material ratio, etc. of the fiber reinforced composite material to be tested, and input it into the trained DNN neural network model.
[0084] S402) Result output:
[0085] The model outputs the prediction result of the limiting oxygen index of the glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite material to be tested, so as to provide a decision basis for material research and development personnel and production enterprises in material ratio design and production process optimization. Enterprises can select the optimal material formula and production process according to the prediction result, reduce the production cost, and improve the flame retardant performance and quality of the product.
[0086] In summary, the prediction method of the present application has at least the following advantages over the prior art:
[0087] 1) The present application builds a DNN neural network model, taking fiber types, flame retardant types and other parameters as inputs. After training and learning, the model can quickly give the flame retardant performance prediction result, greatly shortening the research and development cycle. In actual production, the material formula and process may need to be adjusted in real time due to various factors. The model of the present application can quickly process new input parameters and timely predict the adjusted flame retardant performance, providing immediate support for production decision-making.
[0088] 2) The prior art has poor prediction accuracy when analyzing the influence of a single flame retardant on the flame retardant performance of fiber reinforced composite materials, because it is difficult to comprehensively consider the interaction of multiple factors. The present application considers the synergistic effect of fiber types, resin types, raw material ratios and other factors with flame retardants through parameterized modeling, so that the model can capture the complex physical and chemical relationships inside the material.
[0089] The method of the present application can be used for prediction of other different fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite materials in addition to glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite materials.
