Abstract
The food industry holds immense promise for 3D printing technology. Current research focuses mainly on optimizing food material composition, molding characteristics, and printing parameters. However, there is a notable lack of comprehensive studies on the shape changes of food products, especially in modeling and simulating deformations. This study addresses this gap by conducting a detailed simulation of the starch gel printing and deformation process using COMSOL Multiphysics 6.2 software. Additive manufacturing (AM) technology is widely acclaimed for its user-friendly operation and cost-effectiveness. The 3D printing process may lead to changes in part dimensions and mechanical properties, attributable to the accumulation of residual stresses. Studies require a significant amount of time and effort to discover the optimal composition of the printed material and the most effective deformed 3D structure. There is a risk of failure, which can lead to wasted resources and research delays. To tackle this issue, this study thoroughly analyzes the physical properties of the gel material through COMSOL Multiphysics 6.2 software, It simulates the heat distribution during the 3D printing process, providing important insights into how materials melt and solidify. Three-part models with varying aspect ratios were meticulously designed to explore shape changes during both the printing process and exposure to an 80 °C environment, employing NMR and rheological characterization. Using the generalized Maxwell model for material simulation in COMSOL Multiphysics, the study predicted stress and deformation of the parts by analyzing solid heat transfer and solid mechanics physical fields. Simulation results showed that among three models utilizing a gel-PET plastic membrane bilayer structure, Model No. 1, with the largest aspect ratio, exhibited the most favorable deformation under an 80 °C baking environment. It displayed uniform bending in the transverse direction without significant excess warpage in the edge direction. In contrast, Models No. 2 and No. 3 showed varying degrees of excess warpage at the edges, with Model No. 3 exhibiting a more pronounced warpage. These findings closely aligned with the actual printing outcomes.

  • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
  • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
  • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
  • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
  • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
