Machine learning models are increasingly used in many engineering fields thanks to the widespread digital data, growing computing power, and advanced algorithms. Artificial neural networks (ANN) is the most popular machine learning model in recent years. Although many ANN models have been used in the design and analysis of composite materials and structures, there are still some unsolved issues that hinder the acceptance of ANN models in the practical design and analysis of composite materials and structures. Moreover, the emerging machine learning techniques are posting new opportunities and challenges in the data-based design paradigm. This paper aims to give a state-of-the-art literature review of ANN models in the nonlinear constitutive modeling, multiscale surrogate modeling, and design optimization of composite materials and structures. This review has been designed to focus on the discussion of the general frameworks and benefits of ANN models to the above problems. Moreover, challenges and opportunities in each key problem are identified and discussed. This paper is expected to open the discussion of future research scope and new directions to enable efficient, robust, and accurate data-driven design and analysis of composite materials and structures.

The recent surge in the adoption of machine learning techniques for materials design, discovery, and characterization has resulted in an increased interest and application of Image Driven Machine Learning (IDML) approaches. In this work, we review the application of IDML to the field of materials characterization. A hierarchy of six action steps is defined which compartmentalizes a problem statement into well-defined modules. The studies reviewed in this work are analyzed through the decisions adopted by them at each of these steps. Such a review permits a granular assessment of the field, for example the impact of IDML on materials characterization at the nanoscale, the number of images in a typical dataset required to train a semantic segmentation model on electron microscopy images, the prevalence of transfer learning in the domain, etc. Finally, we discuss the importance of interpretability and explainability, and provide an overview of two emerging techniques in the field: semantic segmentation and generative adversarial networks.
Machine learning was utilized to efficiently boost the development of soft magnetic materials. The design process includes building a database composed of published experimental results, applying machine learning methods on the database, identifying the trends of magnetic properties in soft magnetic materials, and accelerating the design of next-generation soft magnetic nanocrystalline materials through the use of numerical optimization. Machine learning regression models were trained to predict magnetic saturation ($B_S$), coercivity ($H_C$) and magnetostriction ($lambda$), with a stochastic optimization framework being used to further optimize the corresponding magnetic properties. To verify the feasibility of the machine learning model, several optimized soft magnetic materials -- specified in terms of compositions and thermomechanical treatments -- have been predicted and then prepared and tested, showing good agreement between predictions and experiments, proving the reliability of the designed model. Two rounds of optimization-testing iterations were conducted to search for better properties.
Optical materials with special optical properties are widely used in a broad span of technologies, from computer displays to solar energy utilization leading to large dataset accumulated from years of extensive materials synthesis and optical characterization. Previously, machine learning models have been developed to predict the optical absorption spectrum from a materials characterization image or vice versa. Herein we propose TLOpt, a transfer learning based inverse optical materials design algorithm for suggesting material compositions with a desired target light absorption spectrum. Our approach is based on the combination of a deep neural network model and global optimization algorithms including a genetic algorithm and Bayesian optimization. A transfer learning strategy is employed to solve the small dataset issue in training the neural network predictor of optical absorption spectrum using the Magpie materials composition descriptor. Our extensive experiments show that our algorithm can inverse design the materials composition with stoichiometry with high accuracy.
Trust is a multilayered concept with critical relevance when it comes to introducing new technologies. Understanding how humans will interact with complex vehicle systems and preparing for the functional, societal and psychological aspects of autonomous vehicles entry into our cities is a pressing concern. Design tools can help calibrate the adequate and affordable level of trust needed for a safe and positive experience. This study focuses on passenger interactions capable of enhancing the system trustworthiness and data accuracy in future shared public transportation.
The large-scale search for high-performing candidate 2D materials is limited to calculating a few simple descriptors, usually with first-principles density functional theory calculations. In this work, we alleviate this issue by extending and generalizing crystal graph convolutional neural networks to systems with planar periodicity, and train an ensemble of models to predict thermodynamic, mechanical, and electronic properties. To demonstrate the utility of this approach, we carry out a screening of nearly 45,000 structures for two largely disjoint applications: namely, mechanically robust composites and photovoltaics. An analysis of the uncertainty associated with our methods indicates the ensemble of neural networks is well-calibrated and has errors comparable with those from accurate first-principles density functional theory calculations. The ensemble of models allows us to gauge the confidence of our predictions, and to find the candidates most likely to exhibit effective performance in their applications. Since the datasets used in our screening were combinatorically generated, we are also able to investigate, using an innovative method, structural and compositional design principles that impact the properties of the structures surveyed and which can act as a generative model basis for future material discovery through reverse engineering. Our approach allowed us to recover some well-accepted design principles: for instance, we find that hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites with lead and tin tend to be good candidates for solar cell applications.
