Deep learning applied to computational mechanics: A comprehensive review, state of the art, and the classics
Three recent breakthroughs due to AI in arts and science serve as motivation:
An award winning digital image, protein folding, fast matrix multiplication.
Many recent developments in artificial neural networks, particularly deep
learning (DL), applied and relevant to computational mechanics (solid, fluids,
finite-element technology) are reviewed in detail. Both hybrid and pure machine
learning (ML) methods are discussed. Hybrid methods combine traditional PDE
discretizations with ML methods either (1) to help model complex nonlinear
constitutive relations, (2) to nonlinearly reduce the model order for efficient
simulation (turbulence), or (3) to accelerate the simulation by predicting
certain components in the traditional integration methods. Here, methods (1)
and (2) relied on Long-Short-Term Memory (LSTM) architecture, with method (3)
relying on convolutional neural networks. Pure ML methods to solve (nonlinear)
PDEs are represented by Physics-Informed Neural network (PINN) methods, which
could be combined with attention mechanism to address discontinuous solutions.
Both LSTM and attention architectures, together with modern and generalized
classic optimizers to include stochasticity for DL networks, are extensively
reviewed. Kernel machines, including Gaussian processes, are provided to
sufficient depth for more advanced works such as shallow networks with infinite
width. Not only addressing experts, readers are assumed familiar with
computational mechanics, but not with DL, whose concepts and applications are
built up from the basics, aiming at bringing first-time learners quickly to the
forefront of research. History and limitations of AI are recounted and
discussed, with particular attention at pointing out misstatements or
misconceptions of the classics, even in well-known references. Positioning and
pointing control of a large-deformable beam is given as an example.Comment: 275 pages, 158 figures. Appeared online on 2023.03.01 at
