"The first step towards intelligent wire arc additive manufacturing: An" by Donghong Ding, Fengyang He et al.
Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) has revolutionized the manufacturing paradigm for fabricating medium to large scale metallic parts featuring high buy-to-fly ratios such as aerospace components. As a promising technology for the manufacturing industry, it is necessary to develop an automated WAAM system with high efficiency and low labour cost. Generally, to achieve a fully intelligent WAAM system, the first step is to develop an intelligent weld bead modelling system which is able to provide users with appropriate welding parameters in terms of producing components with high accuracy.
