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.

Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) provide a promising framework for solving partial differential equations while embedding the underlying physical laws directly into the learning process. This study presents a PINN-based framework for modeling transient elastodynamic wave propagation in bimaterial systems governed by the axisymmetric equations of linear elasticity.

arXiv:2608. 02036v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extending the neural-operator element method from individually trained, fixed-geometry neural elements to a library of reusable, geometry-parameterized element types fails structurally: a field-predicting operator trained by value regression induces an energy whose assembled Hessian is indefinite, and Newton converges to spurious minima (247% error) even with 1%-accurate field predictions.
