| description | A comprehensive control methodology has been developed to address challenges such as temperature fluctuations, inconsistent depth penetration, and compositional integrity variations during laser-induction hybrid strengthening performed with consistent power parameters. This approach synergistically integrates a fuzzy controller and a decoupling compensator. In the initial part of this study, a temperature field model was utilized to investigate the effects of different process factors on temperature profiles. The analysis of step response data facilitated the development of mathematical models that delineate the correlation between the input factors and output responses. Subsequently, a decoupling compensation technique was used to reduce the coupling effects between temperature and its rate of change. A fuzzy controller was then developed to reduce the system's reliance on mathematical models, hence improving the accuracy of the control strategy. The results indicate that the application of fuzzy PI control and the implementation of decoupling compensation, the control strategy successfully improves the performance of the controller by minimizing parameter interactions. This strategy also incorporates real-time adjustment of PI parameters. Compared to conventional PI control, this method offers improved response speed and reduced overshoot. The laser-induction hybrid strengthening technique ensures superior temperature control, maintaining steady-state temperature precision within a 1% tolerance. |
