TY - EJOU AU - , TI - Comparison of New Formulations for Martensite Start Temperature of Fe-Mn-Si Shape Memory Alloys Using Geneting Programming and Neural Networks T2 - Computers, Materials \& Continua PY - 2009 VL - 10 IS - 1 SN - 1546-2226 AB - This work proposed an alternative formulation for the prediction of martensite start temperature (Ms) of Fe-Mn-Si shape memory alloys (SMAs) depending on the various compositions and heat treatment techniques by using Neural Network (NN) and genetic programming (GP) soft computing techniques. The training and testing patterns of the proposed NN and GP formulations are based on well established experimental results from the literature. The NN and GP based formulation results are compared with experimental results and found to be quite reliable with a very high correlation (R2=0.955 for GEP and 0.999 for NN).
