Abstract
The parabolic growth rate constant (kp) of high-temperature oxidation of steels is predicted via a data analytics approach. Four machine learning models including Artificial Neural Networks, Random Forest, k-Nearest Neighbors, and Support Vector Regression are trained to establish the relations between the input features (composition and temperature) and the target value (kp). The models are evaluated by the indices: Mean Absolute Error, Mean Squared Error, Root Mean Squared Error and Coefficient of Determination. The steel composition regarding Cr and Ni content and the temperature were the most significant input features controlling the oxidation kinetics.
