METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR SENSOR-ASSISTED PART DEVELOPMENT IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING USING A MACHINE LEARNING MODEL

Methods and apparatus for sensor-based part development are disclosed. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to translate at least one user-defined material property selection into a desired process observable, the desired process observable including a meltpool property, perform voxel-based autozoning of an input part geometry, the input part geometry based on a computer-generated design, and output a voxelized reference map for the input part geometry based on the desired process observable and the voxel-based autozoning.
