The paper introduces a variational, label‑free physics‑informed graph neural network (PI‑GNN) that models heterogeneous solid mechanics by embedding material heterogeneity into the discretization rather than the neural network’s trial field. The PI‑GNN operates on a conforming adaptive mesh graph, assigns constitutive behavior per element, and minimizes the discrete total potential energy without penalty terms or interface weights, yielding a discrete energy equivalent to the finite element Ritz functional. Across small‑strain elasticity and finite‑strain Neo‑Hookean hyperelasticity in 2D and 3D, the method achieves von Mises errors below 3.58 % over a wide stiffness‑contrast range, outperforming strong‑form PINNs and reducing displacement errors significantly.

This paper presents a morphogenetic graph‑generation framework that builds mechanical lattices by sequentially adding nodes from a discrete dot matrix, mirroring natural growth processes. The resulting 3D lattices are evaluated with finite‑element analysis and encoded as graphs, which a graph convolutional neural network (GCNN) uses to learn a topology‑property map and predict compressive stiffness. By coupling the GCNN surrogate with rapid sampling, the authors perform inverse design to achieve target stiffness values and extend the method to curved, nonlinear beams for shape‑programming applications.
The paper introduces a data‑driven constitutive modeling framework that treats a deforming material as a functional mapping from its entire strain history to the corresponding stress response. By training on full loading paths as function‑to‑function mappings, the model predicts complete stress trajectories in a single parallel forward pass, using causal attention to enforce temporal path dependence and spectral convolutions for discretization‑invariant representations. The approach is validated on multidimensional, rate‑independent material models, accurately capturing nonlinear plasticity and ductile damage while achieving resolution invariance and excellent parallel efficiency.
arXiv:2608. 13827v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine-learned physical surrogate models have become promising alternatives to mesh-based numerical solvers.
The paper introduces a differentiable finite element framework that discovers hyperelastic constitutive laws from limited experimental data, such as boundary-only displacement measurements and global reaction forces. By embedding the nonlinear finite element equilibrium problem into the learning loop, the method evaluates candidate strain‑energy densities through the deformation fields they produce, enforcing mechanical equilibrium as a constraint. The constitutive response is modeled with Hyperelastic Neural Networks, a structure‑preserving class that guarantees physical admissibility, including residual energy and stress‑free conditions, frame indifference, isotropic symmetry, polyconvexity, coercivity, and controlled volumetric growth. Numerical experiments in two and three dimensions show accurate recovery of hyperelastic isotropic responses, robustness to noise, and generalization across geometries, loading, and boundary conditions.
The paper introduces a data‑driven constitutive modeling framework that treats a material as a functional mapping from its entire strain history to stress response. It uses neural operators with causal attention and spectral convolutions to predict full stress trajectories in a single parallel forward pass, enforcing temporal path dependence without relying on internal state variables. The method is validated on multidimensional, rate‑independent plasticity and ductile damage models, achieving accurate, resolution‑invariant predictions with excellent parallel efficiency.
