Modelling and parameter optimization for filament deformation in 3D cementitious material printing using support vector machine by Liu, Zhixin, Li, Mingyang, Weng, Yiwei, Qian, Ye, Wong, Teck Neng, Tan, Ming Jen

“…The SVM model results showed that deformation of the printed filament is independent of plastic viscosity, however, material yield stress and relative nozzle travel speed significantly affect the deformation of the printed filament. Lastly, an empirical parametric associative model was proposed to predict the filament deformation based on material yield stress and relative nozzle travel speed.…”
