• Abstract: Machine learning techniques are increasingly used to predict material behavior in scientific applications and offer a significant advantage over conventional numerical methods. In this work, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model is used in a finite element formulation to define the flow law of a metallic material as a function of plastic strain, plastic strain rate and temperature. First, we present the general structure of the neural network, its operation and focus on the ability of the network to deduce, without prior learning, the derivatives of the flow law with respect to the model inputs. In order to validate the robustness and accuracy of the proposed model, we compare and analyze the performance of several network architectures with respect to the analytical formulation of a Johnson-Cook behavior law for a 42CrMo4 steel. In a second part, after having selected an Artificial Neural Network architecture with $2$ hidden layers, we present the implementation of this model in the Abaqus Explicit computational code in the form of a VUHARD subroutine. The predictive capability of the proposed model is then demonstrated during the numerical simulation of two test cases: the necking of a circular bar and a Taylor impact test. The results obtained show a very high capability of the ANN to replace the analytical formulation of a Johnson-Cook behavior law in a finite element code, while remaining competitive in terms of numerical simulation time compared to a classical approach.

  Current practice requires expensive computational costs in model training for performance prediction. We propose a novel framework for neural network selection by analyzing the governing dynamics over synaptic connections (edges) during training. Our framework is built on the fact that back-propagation during neural network training is equivalent to the dynamical evolution of synaptic connections.
