This work concerns the wire arc directed energy deposition (WA-DED) additive manufacturing process. The objectives were two-fold: (1) observe and understand, through in-operando high-speed meltpool imaging, the causal dynamics of two common WA-DED process instabilities, namely, humping and humping-induced porosity; and (2) leverage the high-speed meltpool imaging data within machine learning algorithms for real-time detection of process instabilities. Humping and humping-induced porosity are leading stochastic causes of poor WA-DED part quality that occur despite extensive optimization of processing conditions. It is therefore essential to understand, detect and control the causal meltpool phenomena linked to these instabilities. Accordingly, we used a high-speed camera to capture the meltpool dynamics of multi-layer depositions of ER90S-G steel parts and meltpool flow behavior related to process instabilities were demarcated and quantified. Next, physically intuitive meltpool morphology signatures were extracted from the imaging data. These signatures were used in a machine learning model trained to autonomously detect process instabilities. This novel process-aware machine learning approach classified onset of instabilities with ∼85 % accuracy (F1-score), outperforming black-box deep learning models (F1-score <66 %). These results pave the way for a physically intuitive process-aware machine learning strategy for monitoring and control of the WA-DED process.
