The research institute Swerim provides applied research within mining engineering, process metallurgy and materials and manufacturing engineering, mainly for the mining, steel and metals industry. Swerim has 190 co-workers in two locations in Sweden - Luleå and Stockholm.

Background

Development of metallic materials is in many aspects an iterative process involving a series of steps e.g. physically-based modelling, design of experimental heats, processing, characterization and material testing. There is a strong need to accelerate material development, for this reason faster and more accurate methods are being development to support the development cycle. Machine learning methods is likely to play a big role in how we develop materials in the future. One use case is to provide correlations between input-output space for which physically-based models are not available.

Project description
In your thesis, you will evaluate a sequential machine learning approach for applications within material development. The sequential machine learning approach is chosen because of the precious nature of experimental data. This will be done by defining a relevant input-output space where physical do exist, and sample data from this input-output space to train the machine learning model. An important goal of the project is to assess the amount of data needed to make a good representation of the input-output space, as well as to explore various sampling strategies. The work will be performed as a collaboration between Swerim, Högskolan i Skövde and companies represented by Swedish metal industry.

Objectives and learning outcome
• Literature survey including review of sequential machine learning methods, in particular for applications within material science.
• Implementation of sequential machine learning models using open-source tools.
• Evaluate best practice for relevant input-output space(es) i.e. type of model and sampling strategies.
• Scientific publication.

Required qualifications
Student in computer since, physics, material science or related area. Proficiency in coding is a must and hands-on experience using machine learning techniques is considered a merit.

The work should be initiated during the beginning of 2023. The master student performing the work will gain a large industry network. Swerim rewards the student with 50 000 SEK for an approved master thesis (30hp).
