Abstract Aluminum alloys are attractive for a number of applications due to their high specific strength, and developing new compositions is a major goal in the structural materials community. Here, we investigate the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy system (7xxx series) by machine learning-based composition and process optimization. The discovered optimized alloy is compositionally lean with a high ultimate tensile strength of 952 MPa and 6.3% elongation following a cost-effective processing route. We find that the Al8Cu4Y phase in wrought 7xxx-T6 alloys exists in the form of a nanoscale network structure along sub-grain boundaries besides the common irregular-shaped particles. Our study demonstrates the feasibility of using machine learning to search for 7xxx alloys with good mechanical performance.

The ability of a metal to be subjected to forming processes depends mainly on its plastic behavior and, thus, the mechanical properties belonging to this region of the stress–strain curve. Forming techniques are among the most widespread metalworking procedures in manufacturing, and aluminum alloys are of great interest in fields as diverse as the aerospace sector or the food industry. A precise characterization of the mechanical properties is crucial to estimate the forming capability of equipment, but also for a robust numerical modeling of metal forming processes. Characterizing a material is a very relevant task in which large amounts of resources are invested, and this paper studies how to optimize a multilayer neural network to be able to make, through machine learning, precise and accurate predictions about the mechanical properties of wrought aluminum alloys. This study focuses on the determination of the ultimate tensile strength, closely related to the strain hardening of a material; more precisely, a methodology is developed that, by randomly partitioning the input dataset, performs training and prediction cycles that allow estimating the average performance of each fully-connected topology. In this way, trends are found in the behavior of the networks, and it is established that, for networks with at least 150 perceptrons in their hidden layers, the average predictive error stabilizes below 4%. Beyond this point, no really significant improvements are found, although there is an increase in computational requirements.
