Abstract:
The paper presents the control of the ablated gap of required dimensions in an axisymmetric domain made of metal. For this purpose, two parameters of the laser interacting on this layer were identified, which means laser intensity and characteristic time of the laser pulse. A hyperbolic two-temperature model was applied. This is a model in which there are two coupled equations for electrons and phonons. The model was supplemented with appropriate boundary and initial conditions. The direct problem was solved using the finite difference method with a staggered grid. An artificial immune system was used for the identification process.
