摘要

The fabrication quality of film cooling holes (FCHs) in nickel-based single-crystal superalloys is crucial for ensuring the performance and reliability of aero-engines. However, traditional optimization methods often rely on extensive experiments and fail to achieve optimal results. This study proposes an integrated optimization framework that combines experimental analysis, machine learning, and multi-objective optimization to address this issue. Single-factor and orthogonal experiments were first conducted to identify the influence and importance of key laser processing parameters. A generative adversarial network (GAN) was then used to expand the dataset. Subsequently, a backpropagation neural network (BP) optimized by the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) was developed to model the nonlinear relationships between process parameters and output quality metrics, including hole taper and material removal rate. Finally, the WOA-BP model was integrated with the NSGA-II algorithm to determine a Pareto-optimal set of parameter combinations. The optimized results achieved prediction errors below 2%, with improvements of 10% in hole taper and 6% in material removal rate, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
