arXiv:2606. 19375v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Identifying anisotropic yield functions remains challenging since yielding is not directly observed in full-field mechanical measurements, directional calibration can require many loading directions, and selecting an appropriate analytical form is nontrivial.
arXiv:2607. 14563v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Estimating spatially heterogeneous elastic properties from low-resolution displacement measurements is a severely ill-posed inverse elasticity problem because low resolution obscures spatial details needed to distinguish heterogeneous property variations, and small measurement perturbations or fitting errors are amplified through inverse estimation.
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.
arXiv:2607. 20339v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Constitutive modeling under uncertainty remains a central challenge for reliable mechanics simulations, particularly when the available stress-deformation data are sparse, noisy, or heterogeneous.
arXiv:2606. 11247v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative models are increasingly used to propose designs, data, and control actions for physical systems, yet many such systems are governed by hard physical constraints rather than by perceptual plausibility.
Constitutive modeling under uncertainty remains a central challenge for reliable mechanics simulations, particularly when the available stress-deformation data are sparse, noisy, or heterogeneous. We propose interval and fuzzy physics-augmented neural networks (iPANNs and fPANNs) for uncertainty-aware hyperelastic constitutive modeling.
