The discovery of new materials has been the essential force which brings a discontinuous improvement to industrial products performance. However, the extra-vast combinatorial design space of material structures exceeds human experts capability to explore all, thereby hampering material development. In this paper, we present a material industry-oriented web platform of an AI-driven molecular inverse-design system, which automatically designs brand new molecular structures rapidly and diversely. Different from existing inverse-design solutions, in this system, the combination of substructure-based feature encoding and molecular graph generation algorithms allows a user to gain high-speed, interpretable, and customizable design process. Also, a hierarchical data structure and user-oriented UI provide a flexible and intuitive workflow. The system is deployed on IBMs and our clients cloud servers and has been used by 5 partner companies. To illustrate actual industrial use cases, we exhibit inverse-design of sugar and dye molecules, that were carried out by experimental chemists in those client companies. Compared to general human chemists standard performance, the molecular design speed was accelerated more than 10 times, and greatly increased variety was observed in the inverse-designed molecules without loss of chemical realism.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven material design has been attracting great attentions as a groundbreaking technology across a wide spectrum of industries. Molecular design is particularly important owing to its broad application domains and boundl
ess creativity attributed to progresses in generative models. The recent maturity of molecular generative models has stimulated expectations for practical use among potential users, who are not necessarily familiar with coding or scripting, such as experimental engineers and students in chemical domains. However, most of the existing molecular generative models are Python libraries on GitHub, that are accessible for only IT-savvy users. To fill this gap, we newly developed a graphical user interface (GUI)-based web application of molecular generative models, Molecule Generation Experience, that is open to the general public. This is the first web application of molecular generative models enabling users to work with built-in datasets to carry out molecular design. In this paper, we describe the background technology extended from our previous work. Our new online evaluation and structural filtering algorithms significantly improved the generation speed by 30 to 1,000 times with a wider structural variety, satisfying chemical stability and synthetic reality. We also describe in detail our Kubernetes-based scalable cloud architecture and user-oriented GUI that are necessary components to achieve a public service. Finally, we present actual use cases in industrial research to design new photoacid generators (PAGs) as well as release cases in educational events.
We present the sliding basis computational framework to automatically synthesize heterogeneous (graded or discrete) material fields for parts designed using constrained optimization. Our framework uses the fact that any spatially varying material fie
ld over a given domain may be parameterized as a weighted sum of the Laplacian eigenfunctions enabling efficient design space exploration with the weights as a small set of design variables. We further improve computational efficiency by using the property that the Laplacian eigenfunctions form a spectrum and may be ordered from lower to higher frequencies. This approach allows greater localized control of the material distribution as the sliding window moves through higher frequencies. The approach also reduces the number of optimization variables per iteration, thus the design optimization process speeds up independent of the domain resolution without sacrificing analysis quality. Our method is most beneficial when the gradients may not be computed easily (i.e., optimization problems coupled with external black-box analysis) thereby enabling optimization of otherwise intractable design problems. The sliding basis framework is independent of any particular physics analysis, objective and constraints, providing a versatile and powerful design optimization tool for various applications. We demonstrate our approach on graded solid rocket fuel design and multi-material topology optimization applications and evaluate its performance.
Designing novel materials that possess desired properties is a central need across many manufacturing industries. Driven by that industrial need, a variety of algorithms and tools have been developed that combine AI (machine learning and analytics) w
ith domain knowledge in physics, chemistry, and materials science. AI-driven materials design can be divided to mainly two stages; the first one is the modeling stage, where the goal is to build an accurate regression or classification model to predict material properties (e.g. glass transition temperature) or attributes (e.g. toxic/non-toxic). The next stage is design, where the goal is to assemble or tune material structures so that they can achieve user-demanded target property values based on a prediction model that is trained in the modeling stage. For maximum benefit, these two stages should be architected to form a coherent workflow. Today there are several emerging services and tools for AI-driven material design, however, most of them provide only partial technical components (e.g. data analyzer, regression model, structure generator, etc.), that are useful for specific purposes, but for comprehensive material design, those components need to be orchestrated appropriately. Our material design system provides an end-to-end solution to this problem, with a workflow that consists of data input, feature encoding, prediction modeling, solution search, and structure generation. The system builds a regression model to predict properties, solves an inverse problem on the trained model, and generates novel chemical structure candidates that satisfy the target properties. In this paper we will introduce the methodology of our system, and demonstrate a simple example of inverse design generating new chemical structures that satisfy targeted physical property values.
Aperiodic metamaterials represent a class of structural systems that are composed of different building blocks (cells), instead of a self-repeating chain of the same unit cells. Optimizing aperiodic cellular structural systems thus presents high-dime
nsional problems that are challenging to solve using purely high-fidelity structural optimization approaches. Specialized analytical modeling along with metamodel based optimization can provide a more tractable alternative solution approach. To this end, this paper presents a design automation framework applied to a 1D metamaterial system, namely a drill string, where vibration suppression is of utmost importance. The drill string comprises a set of nonuniform rings attached to the outer surface of a longitudinal rod. As such, the resultant system can now be perceived as an aperiodic 1D metamaterial with each ring/gap representing a cell. Despite being a 1D system, the simultaneous consideration of multiple DoF (i.e., torsional, axial, and lateral motions) poses significant computational challenges. Therefore, a transfer matrix method (TMM) is employed to analytically determine the frequency response of the drill string. A suite of neural networks (ANN) is trained on TMM samples (which present minute-scale computing costs per evaluation), to model the frequency response. ANN-based optimization is then performed to minimize mass subject to constraints on the gap between consecutive resonance peaks in one case, and minimizing this gap in the second case, leading to crucial improvements over baselines. Further novel contribution occurs through the development of an inverse modeling approach that can instantaneously produce the 1D metamaterial design with minimum mass for a given desired non-resonant frequency range. This is accomplished by using invertible neural networks, and results show promising alignment with forward solutions.
This paper presents a Material Mask Overlay Strategy topology optimization approach with improved material assignment at the element level for achieving close to black-and-white designs for pressure-loaded problems. Hexagonal elements are employed to
parametrize the design domain as this tessellation provides nonsingular local connectivity. Elliptical negative masks are used to find the optimized material layout. The material dilation and material erosion variables of each mask are systematically varied in association with a gray-scale measure constraint to achieve designs close to 0-1. Darcys law in association with a drainage term is used to formulate the pressure field. The obtained pressure field is converted into the consistent nodal forces using Wachspress shape functions. Sensitivities of the objective and pressure load are evaluated using the adjoint-variable method. The approach is demonstrated by solving various pressure-loaded structures and pressure-actuated compliant mechanisms. Compliance is minimized for loadbearing structures, whereas a multicriteria objective is minimized for mechanism designs.
