arXiv:2607. 04123v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse design of mechanical metamaterials seeks a periodic unit cell whose homogenized elastic properties meet a prescribed target, but current learning-based methods are data-hungry, mostly interpolative, and provide no guarantee that the generated design satisfies the specification.

arXiv:2608. 08322v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks applied to the level-set formulation of interface advection commonly augment the residual and initial-condition losses with an eikonal regulariser, penalising the deviation of $\|\nabla\phi\|$ from unity.
arXiv:2609. 38023v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) embed governing equations into deep learning, but enforce them only through loss residuals, leaving highly oscillatory wave behavior to be discovered by optimization.
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.
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. We introduce convex neural energy elements: each element exports a scalar energy E(g,U), architecturally convex in its boundary degrees of freedom U and smoothly parameterized by its geometry g, realized as a hypernetwork-generated positive-semidefinite quadratic form (an input-convex correction is reserved for non-quadratic physics).
The paper introduces Spectrally Optimised Neural Discretisations (SpeND), a mesh‑free framework that learns discretisation weights from local stencil geometry on unstructured point clouds. By embedding discrete moment conditions into the network architecture, SpeND guarantees polynomial consistency and allows the weights to be optimised for spectral accuracy over a chosen wavenumber band, using an unsupervised Fourier‑mode loss. The resulting operators are PDE‑agnostic, perform well on Poisson, Burgers, and Navier–Stokes equations, and can reduce wall‑clock time by 3–20× compared to existing mesh‑free methods at the same accuracy.
arXiv:2605. 23967v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In biological systems, sensing is not performed by the brain alone: the body deforms, vibrates, and filters external stimuli before they are transduced into neural signals.
arXiv:2606. 09266v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Acoustic metamaterial (AMM) inverse design is particularly challenging for broadband target responses due to acoustic dispersion: a structure that matches the desired response at one frequency may deviate at others, and modifying geometry to improve one sub-band often perturbs neighboring sub-bands.
The paper introduces a method that combines Fourier Neural Operators with wavelet-based encodings to learn and predict multiple eigenmodes of the elastic wave equation in metamaterials. By encoding PDE inputs with wavelets, the model can deterministically select eigenmodes for both continuous and binary geometries, and it explains how prediction accuracy depends on geometric discontinuities. The surrogate model achieves a three‑order‑of‑magnitude speedup over finite element analysis while maintaining high fidelity, offering a powerful tool for accelerating metamaterial design.
