The concentration of ozone and ferric ions, pulp density, oxygen amount, leaching time and temperature were employed as inputs to the network; the output of the network was the percentage of the ferric extraction iron from RGC. The multilayered feed-forward networks were trained by 33 sets of input-output patterns using a back propagation algorithm; a three-layer network with 8 neurons in the hidden layer gave optimal results. The model gave good predictions of high correlation coefficient (R2=0.966). The predictions by ANN are more accurate when compared with conventional multivariate regression analysis (MVRA). In addition, calculation with ANN model indicates that temperature is the predominant parameter and ozone concentration is the lesser influential parameter in the pre-oxidation process of refractory gold ore. The ANN neural network model accurately estimates the ferric extraction during pretreatment process of RGC in gold smelter plants and can be used to optimize the process parameters.展开更多

A selection method of optimum friction welding condition using neural networks is proposed. The data used for analyses are the friction stir welding condition, the input parameters of the model consist of welding speed and tool rotation speed. The outputs of the ANN (Artificial Neural Network)model includes resulting parameters, namely, maximum reached temperature,and heating rate for both aluminum alloy 6061 and stainless steel 304 during friction stir welding process.The results of analysis suggest that the proposed method is an effective one to select an optimum welding condition.Good performance of the ANN model was achieved. The combined influence of welding speed and tool rotation speed on the maximum reached temperature and heating rate for both aluminum alloy 6061and stainless steel 304 friction stir welding was simulated. A comparison was made between the output of the ANN program and finite element model. The calculated results were in good agreement with that of finite element model.展开更多
