Modeling the Bending Strength of MDF Faced, Polyurethane Foam-Cored Sandwich Panels Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN)

The present study evaluates and compares predictions on the performance and the approaches of the response surface methodology (RSM) and the artificial neural network (ANN) so to model the bending strength of the polyurethane foam-cored sandwich panel. The effect of the independent variables (formal...
