Zusammenfassung:A method of manufacturing a composite structure includes accessing design data for the composite structure that is manufactured according to a process including forming a layup of plies of fibers using a machine tool. The method includes applying the design data to an ANN classifier to classify a localized inconsistency of a type of inconsistency on the composite structure, the localized inconsistency spatially referenced to a location on the composite structure. The method includes performing a root cause analysis to identify one or more of process parameters as a potential cause of the type of inconsistency, and modifying one or more of the geometric model, the layup design, or values of the one or more of the process parameters to address the potential cause.
