Optimization of aerosol jet printed strain sensor design via computational simulation by Wong, Chee Khong

“…Additionally, by the used of the simulation software to adjust or modify the parameters and materials, it greatly helps the user to save both the time and cost spent on conducting real-life experiments. The different experiment groups such as dimension of the strain gauge, foil grid design and material, and substrate material will be conducted to find out the factor that will affects the strain sensitivity of the strain gauge. …”

Rapid process modeling of the aerosol jet printing based on gaussian process regression with latin hypercube sampling by Zhang, Haining, Moon, Seung Ki, Ngo, T. H., Tou, J., Bin Mohamed Yusoff, M. A.

“…Hence, it is necessary to develop a small data set based machine learning approach to model relationship between the process parameters and the line morphology. In this paper, we propose a rapid process modeling method for AJP process and consider sheath gas flow rate, carrier gas flow rate, stage speed as AJP process parameters, and line width and line roughness as the line morphology. …”
