An unsupervised machine learning approach to reduce nonlinear FE2 multiscale calculations using macro clustering

Résumé

Solving nonlinear multiscale methods with history-dependent behaviors and fine macroscopic meshes is a well-know challenge. In this work, an unsupervised machine learning-based clustering approach is developed to reduce nonlinear Multilevel Finite Element-FE2 calculations. In contrast with most available techniques which aim at developing Reduced Order Models (ROM) or AI-based surrogate models for the microscale nonlinear problems, the present technique reduces the problem from the macro scale by creating clusters of macro Gauss points which are assumed to be in close mechanical states. Then, a single micro nonlinear Representative Volume Element (RVE) calculation is performed for each cluster. A linear approximation of the macro stress is used in each cluster. Handling internal variables is carried out by using anelastic macro strains in the clustering vectors in addition to the macro strains components. Finally, some convergence issues related to the use of clusters at the macro scale are addressed through a cluster freezing algorithm. The technique is applied to nonlinear hyperelastic, viscoelastic and elastoplastic composites. In contrast to available ROM or machine-learning -based acceleration techniques, the present method does not require neither preliminary off-line calculations, nor training, nor data base, nor reduced basis at the macro scale, while maintaining typical speed-up factors about 20 as compared to classical FE2.
