Call for Papers Special Issue
on Hybrid Grey system and Artificial Intelligence in Manufacturing and Advanced Materials
In Grey Systems Theory and Application (ESCI)
SCOPE
Now a days the manufacturing industries wants to maintain a compromise in between the quality and productivity. Every industry dealing with manufacturing of components or development of material, is interested to develop a quality component at minimum input. Therefore, industries are adopting the optimization techniques based on the statistical and artificial intelligence methods.
This special issue aims to focus on innovations and research on the optimization using hybrid approach and development of grey and artificial intelligence in the advanced manufacturing processes and materials domain. It will focus on the development and processing of advanced material and optimum utilization of resources by using minimum effort to save cost and energy. It will also show the application feasibility of the grey based fuzzy algorithm for continuous improvement in product quality in complex manufacturing processes. The advanced manufacturing processes includes as USM, EDM, WEDM, AFM, AWJM etc. The modern material includes as smart-materials, ceramic, composites, biomaterials using advanced manufacturing techniques.
The topics of this special issue include, but are not limited to
- Optimization and modelling of advanced manufacturing processes
- Implementation of hybrid optimization for the development and processing of advanced materials
- Grey and AI implementation for manufacturing innovations.
- Advanced material characteristics enhancement by optimization methods.
- Grey and Fuzzy theory in advanced machining processes.
- Optimization of the testing of novel composites.
- Applications of Grey and AI based optimization in industry 4.0
