As a metal additive manufacturing process, laser cladding (LC) is employed as a novel and beneficial repair technology for damaged steel structures. This study employed LC technology with 316 L stainless steel powder to repair locally corroded steel plates. The influences of interface slope and scanning pattern on the mechanical properties of repaired specimens were investigated through tensile tests and finite element analysis.

The hydraulic pressure loading locus has a significant influence on the spring back of small features of the part, and the applicability of the spring back prediction model to the process needs further research. Therefore, this paper takes the large aluminum alloy inner panel of an automobile as the research object, and the spring back model and the influence laws of the hydraulic pressure loading locus are revealed by combining the theoretical analysis and numerical simulation with the process tests.

Firstly, the isometric mapping algorithm is applied to construct the health indicator (HI) based on the statistical characteristics of gear. Then a novel variant of long-short-term memory neural network with attention-guided ordered neurons (LSTM-AON) is constructed to achieve the accurate prediction of gear remaining useful life (RUL).
