The paper introduces a mesh‑free multiresolution deep energy method for phase‑field modeling of brittle fracture. A single neural network represents displacement and phase fields, trained by minimizing incremental energy with multiresolution B‑spline feature encoding and stratified Monte Carlo integration. Across six benchmark problems, the method reproduces load‑displacement curves and crack patterns with high accuracy, outperforming a deep Ritz baseline on a random multi‑crack dataset.
arXiv:2606. 19378v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific machine learning (SciML) has emerged as a promising approach for accelerating simulations of complex physical systems, yet achieving physically consistent and generalizable predictions for nonlinear, history-dependent problems remains a central challenge.
arXiv:2606. 10909v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reconstructing local stress fields in heterogeneous microstructures under non-linear, history-dependent loading remains a major computational bottleneck in multi-scale simulations.
arXiv:2607. 09382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work aims to develop a fast and physically consistent surrogate model for real-time structural health monitoring of fractured elastic domains.
arXiv:2606. 08287v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Finite element analysis (FEA) is essential for structural design but remains computationally expensive, particularly when evaluating multiple design iterations or load scenarios.
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.
