Abstract

RBF model, a new type of artificial neural network model was developed to design the content of carbon in low-alloy engineering steels. The errors of the ANN model are: MSE 0.0521, MSRE 17.85%, and VOF 1.9329. The results obtained are satisfactory. The method is a powerful aid for designing new steels.
