Automated identification of linear viscoelastic constitutive laws with EUCLID

We extend EUCLID, a computational strategy for automated material model discovery and identification, to linear viscoelasticity. For this case, we perform a priori model selection by adopting a generalized Maxwell model expressed by a Prony series, and deploy EUCLID for identification. The methodology is based on four ingredients: i. full...

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 ...

Automated discovery of generalized standard material models with EUCLID

We extend the scope of our recently developed approach for unsupervised automated discovery of material laws (denoted as EUCLID) to the general case of a material belonging to an unknown class of constitutive behavior. To this end, we leverage the theory of generalized standard materials, which encompasses a plethora of important constitutive...

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...
