The Machine Learning Methods in Non-Destructive Testing of Dynamic Properties of Vacuum Insulated Glazing Type Composite Panels
The VIG (Vacuum Insulated Glazing) unit, composite glazing in which the space between glass panes is filled with vacuum, is one of the most advanced technologies. The key elements of the construction of VIG plates are the support pillars. Therefore, an important issue is the analysis of their mechanical properties, such as Young’s modulus and their variability over a long period of time. Machine learning (ML) methods are undergoing tremendous development these days. Among the many different techniques included in AI, neural networks (NN) and extreme gradient boosting (XGB) algorithms deserve special attention. In this study, to train selected methods of machine learning, numerical data developed in the VIG plate modelling process using Abaqus program were used. The test method proposed in this article is based on the VIG plate subjected to forced vibrations of specific frequencies and then the reading of the dynamic response of the composite plate. Such collected and pre-developed experimental data were used to obtain the mechanical parameters of the steel elements located inside the analysed vacuum glazing. In the future, the proposed research methods can be used to analyse the mechanical properties of other types of composite panels.
