Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / In this thesis, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) technique is used to model and simulate the Turning Process. Significant machining parameters (i.e. spindle speed, feed rate, and, depths of cut) and process parameters (surface roughness and cutting forces) are considered. It is shown that Multi-Layer Back Propagation Neural Network is capable to perform this particular task. Design of Experiments approach is used for efficient selection of values of parameters used during experiments to reduce cost and time for experiments. The Particle Swarm Optimization methodology is used for constrained optimization of machining parameters to minimize surface roughness as well as cutting forces. ANN and Particle Swarm Optimization, two computational intelligence techniques when combined together, provide efficient computational strategy for finding optimum solutions. The proposed method is capable of handling multiple parameter optimization problems for processes that have non-linear relationship between input and output parameters e.g. milling, drilling etc. In addition, this methodology provides reliable, fast and efficient tool that can provide suitable solution to many problems faced by manufacturing industry today.
