Knowledge of the forging tool durability, needed in the process of artificial neural network training, was included in the set of training data (about 800 records) derived from long-term comprehensive research carried out under industrial conditions. Based on this set, neural networks with different architectures were developed and the results concerning the intensity of the occurrence of thermal-mechanical fatigue, abrasive wear, mechanical fatigue and plastic deformation were generated for each type of the applied treatment relative to the number of forgings, pressure, friction path and temperature.}, type={Article}, title={Application of Artificial Neural Networks in the Analysis of Mechanisms Destroying Forging Tools}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/114521/PDF/AMM-2020-1-24-Mrzyglod.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2019.131114}, keywords={decision support system, durability of forging tools, artificial neural network, loss of material, wear}, }
