Article Abstract

A stochastic data-driven multilevel finite-element (FE2) method is introduced for random nonlinear multiscale calculations. A hybrid neural-network-interpolation (NN-I) scheme is proposed to construct a surrogate model of the macroscopic nonlinear constitutive law from representative-volume-element calculations, whose results are used as input data. Then, a FE2 method replacing the nonlinear multiscale calculations by the NN-I is developed. The NN-I scheme improved the accuracy of the neural-network surrogate model when insufficient data were available. Due to the achieved reduction in computational time, which was several orders of magnitude less than that to direct FE2, the use of such a machine-learning method is demonstrated for performing Monte Carlo simulations in nonlinear heterogeneous structures and propagating uncertainties in this context, and the identification of probabilistic models at the macroscale on some quantities of interest. Applications to nonlinear electric conduction in graphene-polymer composites are presented.

Drought is one of the most destructive natural disasters globally. Understanding its propagation mechanisms and the causal relationships among different drought types is crucial for effective monitoring and mitigation. Using meteorological (SPI), hydrological (SRI), and agricultural (SSMI) drought indices from 1983 to 2023 in Xinjiang, this study employs the Convergent Cross Mapping (CCM) method to systematically quantify nonlinear causal relationships among the three drought types, revealing their temporal lag characteristics, spatial heterogeneity, and multiscale dynamics.

Background: X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology is a promising method for estimating the metal element content in ores, which helps in understanding ore composition and optimizing mining and processing strategies. However, due to the presence of a large number of redundant features in XRF spectra, traditional quantitative analysis models struggle to effectively capture the nonlinear relationship between element concentration and spectral information of XRF, making it more difficult to accurately predict metal element concentrations. Thus, analyzing ore element concentrations by XRF remains a significant challenge.

Numerical simulation of complex geometries can be an expensive and time-consuming undertaking, in particular due to the lengthy preparation of geometry for meshing and the meshing process itself. To tackle this problem, immersed boundary and fictitious domain methods rely on embedding the physical domain into a Cartesian grid of finite elements and resolving the geometry only by adaptive numerical integration schemes. However, the accuracy, robustness, and efficiency of immersed or cut cell approaches depends crucially on the integration technique applied on trimmed cells.

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder affecting ~50 million patients worldwide (30% refractory cases) with complex dynamical behavior governed by nonlinear differential equations. Seizures severely impact patients' quality of life and may lead to serious complications. As a primary diagnostic tool, electroencephalography (EEG) captures brain dynamics through non-stationary time series with measurable chaotic and fractal properties.
