    Abstract: There are provided methods and systems for making or repairing a specified part. For example, there is provided a method for creating a manufacturing process to make or repair the specified part. The method includes receiving data from a plurality of sources, the data including as-designed, as-manufactured, as-simulated, as-operated, as-inspected, and as-tested data relative to one or more parts similar to the specified part. The method includes updating, in real time, a surrogate model corresponding with a physics-based model of the specified part, wherein the surrogate model forms a digital twin of the specified part. The method includes generating a multi-variant distribution including component performance and manufacturing variance, the manufacturing variance being associated with at least one of an additive manufacturing process step and a reductive manufacturing process step. The method includes comparing a performance from the multi-variant distribution with an expected performance of the new part based on the surrogate model. The method includes executing, based on the digital twin, the optimized process to either repair or make the specified part.

    Abstract: There are provided methods and systems for making or repairing a specified part. For example, there is provided a method for creating an optimized manufacturing process to make or repair the specified part. The method includes receiving data from a plurality of sources, the data including as-designed, as-manufactured, as-simulated, and as-tested data relative to one or more parts similar to the specified part. The method includes updating, in real time, a surrogate model corresponding with a physics-based model of the specified part, wherein the surrogate model forms a digital twin of the specified part. The method includes further updating the surrogate model with a model of manufactured variance associated with at least one of inspection and in-operation data of a similar part. The method includes executing, based on the digital twin, the optimized manufacturing process to either repair or make the specified part.
