Research on Predicting the Stability of Partially Stabilized Zirconia Prepared by Microwave Heating Using SVM

Abstract:

The stability is a key product performance index, which can directly determine the quality of the partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ), so how to predict the stability of PSZ accurately, quickly and easily in the preparation process is very important. In this paper, a new mathematical model to predict the stability of PSZ prepared by microwave heating was proposed, based on statistical theory (SLT) and support vector machine (SVM) theory, which relates the stability of PSZ and the influence factors, such as the holding temperature, rising rate of temperature, holding time, decreasing rate of temperature and hardening temperature. Typical data collected from 58 experiments were used for the training samples and test samples. Then testing and analyzing was done. The results showed that the SVM model is reasonable and it is accurate and reliable to predict the stability of the partially stabilized zirconia prepared by microwave heating by SVM model. Besides, multiple influence factors can be comprehensively considered in the SVM model, thus a new highly effective method for predicting the stability of PSZ prepared by microwave heating is provided for future application, which is of great significance to theory and practice.
