Extended FFT-based micromechanical formulation to consider general non-periodic boundary conditions

Here, this paper presents a new approach for applying non-periodic boundary conditions in the context of FFT-based methods to solve micromechanical problems in heterogeneous solids. The domain of the original problem is extended to satisfy the periodicity requirements at the boundary of the extended domain. The velocity constraint on the boundary of the original domain is replaced by a corresponding constraint on the velocity gradient in the extended volume, and a two-level augmented Lagrangian method is used to enforce the constraint. The proposed method is implemented as an extension of the large-strain elasto-viscoplastic FFT-based (LS-EVPFFT) model of Zecevic et al. (2022). The proposed method is verified in the cases of fully imposed velocity boundary conditions and mixed velocity/traction-free boundary conditions. The accuracy and convergence of the method are studied next, followed by applications to bending and indentation of polycrystals that illustrate the extended capabilities of the proposed formulation.

SDYN-GANs: Adversarial learning methods for multistep generative models for general order stochastic dynamics

We introduce adversarial learning methods for data-driven generative modeling of dynamics of nth-order stochastic systems. Our approach builds on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) with generative model classes based on stable m-step stochastic numerical integrators. From observations of trajectory samples, we introduce methods for learning long-time predictors and stable representations of the dynamics. Our approaches use discriminators based on Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD), training protocols using both conditional and marginal distributions, and methods for learning dynamic responses over different time-scales. We show how our approaches can be used for modeling physical systems to learn force-laws, damping coefficients, and noise-related parameters. Our adversarial learning approaches provide methods for obtaining stable generative models for dynamic tasks including long-time prediction and developing simulations for stochastic systems.
