SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREDICTING MATERIAL PROPERTIES OF A PART TO BE ADDITIVE-MANUFACTURED

A method is provided for predicting material properties of a part to be additive-manufactured. The method comprises additive-manufacturing a plurality of standard parts, and obtaining thermal profiles at select predetermined locations of physical samples of the plurality of standard parts during additive-manufacturing of the plurality of standard parts. The method also comprises storing the thermal profiles and corresponding material properties of the physical samples of the plurality of standard parts in a database. The method further comprises running a machine-learning algorithm to predict material properties of the part to be additive-manufactured based upon the thermal profiles and corresponding material properties of the physical samples of the plurality of standard parts stored in the database.
