Automated discovery of interpretable hyperelastic material models for human brain tissue with EUCLID

We propose an automated computational algorithm for simultaneous model selection and parameter identification for the hyperelastic mechanical characterization of biological tissue and validate it on experimental data stemming from human brain tissue specimens. Following the motive of the recently proposed computational framework EUCLID ...

NN-EUCLID: Deep-learning hyperelasticity without stress data

We propose a new approach for unsupervised learning of hyperelastic constitutive laws with physics-consistent deep neural networks. In contrast to supervised learning, which assumes the availability of stress–strain pairs, the approach only uses realistically measurable full-field displacement and global reaction force data, thus it lies...

Numerical Approaches for Investigating Quasiconvexity in the Context of Morrey’s Conjecture

Deciding whether a given function is quasiconvex is generally a difficult task. Here, we discuss a number of numerical approaches that can be used in the search for a counterexample to the quasiconvexity of a given function W. We will demonstrate these methods using the planar isotropic rank-one convex function Wmagic+(F)=λmaxλmin-logλmaxλmin...

Bayesian-EUCLID: Discovering hyperelastic material laws with uncertainties

Within the scope of our recent approach for Efficient Unsupervised Constitutive Law Identification and Discovery (EUCLID), we propose an unsupervised Bayesian learning framework for discovery of parsimonious and interpretable constitutive laws with quantifiable uncertainties. As in deterministic EUCLID, we do not resort to stress data, but...

Unsupervised discovery of interpretable hyperelastic constitutive laws

We propose a new approach for data-driven automated discovery of isotropic hyperelastic constitutive laws. The approach is unsupervised, i.e., it requires no stress data but only displacement and global force data, which are realistically available through mechanical testing and digital image correlation techniques; it delivers interpretable...
