An introduction to programming Physics-Informed Neural Network-based computational solid mechanics

Physics-informed neural network (PINN) has recently gained increasing interest in computational mechanics. In this work, we present a detailed introduction to programming PINN-based computational solid mechanics. Besides, two prevailingly used physics-informed loss functions for PINN-based computational solid mechanics are summarised. Moreover, numerical examples ranging from 1D to 3D solid problems are presented to show the performance of PINN-based computational solid mechanics. The programs a...
