An alternative method for the analysis of Resonant Ultrasound Spectra of isotropic materials

Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy is known as one of the most accurate techniques to determine materials' elastic properties. Its use has been limited until now since the extraction of elastic coefficients from resonance spectra requires some…

Implementation and analysis of viscoelastic damping in a 2D + 1D model of railway track vibrations

One of the most important technological challenges in the railway context nowadays is reducing the noise produced by the interaction between the train wheels and the track surface, that is the rolling noise. Introducing viscoelastic damping in the…

Apprentissage non-supervisé de lois de comportement nonlinéaires avec réseau de neurones thermodynamiquement consistent par minimisation de l'erreur en relation de comportement modifiée

Cet article propose une méthode d'apprentissage de lois de comportement nonsupervisé, fondée sur la minimisation de l'erreur en relation de comportement modifiée. La loi de comportement, en termes de loi d'état et d'équation d'évolution, est…

Artificial Intelligence

Unsupervised learning of history-dependent constitutive material laws with thermodynamically-consistent neural networks in the modified Constitutive Relation Error framework.

This article proposes a consistent and general approach to train physics-augmented neural networks with observable data to enrich and represent nonlinear history-dependent material behaviors in terms of both state equations and evolution laws. In…

Brightness and contrast corrections for stereocorrelation: Global and instantaneous formulation with spatial regularization

Stereocorrelation (SC) is a versatile experimental method increasingly used to measure 3D surface displacements in complex mechanical tests. However, convergence issues may arise when gray-level conservation is no longer validated, particularly when…

A 3D pantographic metamaterial behaving as a mechanical shield: Experimental and numerical evidence

Multilayer pantographic metamaterials, in short, pantographic blocks, have shown peculiar mechanical behavior, especially when their constitutive hinges are revolving (i.e., perfect) joints. The pantographic block, which is the subject of the…
