Abstract
During the last few decades, industries such as aerospace and wind energy (among others) have been remarkably influenced by the introduction of high-performance composites. One challenge, however, for modeling and designing composites is the lack of computational efficiency of accurate high-fidelity models. For design purposes, using conventional optimization approaches typically results in cumbersome procedures due to huge dimensions of the design space and high computational expense of full-field simulations. In recent years, deep learning techniques have been found to be promising methods to increase the efficiency and robustness of a variety of algorithms in multi-scale modeling and design of composites. In this perspective paper, a short overview of the recent developments in micromechanics-based machine learning for composites is given. More importantly, existing challenges for further model enhancements and future perspectives of the field development are elaborated.
