• Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) is a rapidly evolving technology that has attracted applications across a wide range of fields due to its ability to fabricate complex geometries. However, one of the key challenges in AM is achieving consistent print quality. This inconsistency is often attributed to uncontrolled melt pool dynamics, partly caused by spatter which can lead to defects. Therefore, capturing and controlling the evolution of the melt pool is crucial for enhancing process stability and part quality. In this study, we developed a framework to support decision-making towards efficient AM process operations, capable of facilitating quality control and minimizing defects via machine learning (ML) and polynomial symbolic regression models. We implemented experimentally validated computational tools, specifically for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) processes as a cost-effective approach to collect large datasets. For a dataset consisting of 281 varying process conditions, parameters such as melt pool dimensions (length, width, depth), melt pool geometry (area, volume), and volume indicated as spatter were extracted. Using machine learning (ML) and polynomial symbolic regression models, a high R2 of over 95 % was achieved in predicting the melt pool dimensions and geometry features on both the training and testing datasets, with either process conditions (power and velocity) or melt pool dimensions as the model inputs. In the case of volume indicated as spatter the value of the R2 improved after logarithmic transforming the model inputs, which were either the process conditions or the melt pool dimensions. Among the investigated ML models, the ExtraTree model achieved the highest R2 values of 96.7 % and 87.5 %.

  In this work, we investigate mechanism of spatter formation, using a high-fidelity modelling tool that was built to simulate the multi-physics phenomena in LPBF. To understand spatter behavior and formation, we reveal its properties at ejection and evaluate its variation from the meltpool, the source where it is formed. The relationship between the spatter and the meltpool were evaluated via correlation analysis and machine learning (ML) algorithms for classification tasks.
