1、 AI empowers intelligent design and multi-scale simulation of composite materials
Background introduction

The research background of AI composite materials stems from the severe challenges that traditional composite material development paradigms are facing. The performance of composite materials is determined by countless interdependent variables, such as fiber orientation, layup sequence, process parameters, etc. The "composition structure process performance" relationship is extremely complex, like a difficult to analyze "black box", which leads to traditional methods relying on physical models and trial and error experiments not only being expensive and time-consuming, but also difficult to achieve precise quality control in the manufacturing process, efficient interpretation of non-destructive testing data, and accurate prediction of long-term service performance. At the same time, artificial intelligence (AI) technology, especially machine learning and deep learning, is rapidly developing due to its powerful ability to learn patterns from high-dimensional nonlinear data, efficiency in processing massive amounts of information, and millisecond level real-time prediction advantages. This has prompted researchers to deeply integrate AI into the entire lifecycle of composite material design, manufacturing, testing, and operation, aiming to solve the core pain points mentioned above through a new paradigm of data-driven and intelligent empowerment, achieve reverse design, process optimization, automatic non-destructive evaluation, and accelerate new material discovery, ultimately driving composite material technology towards intelligence, precision, and efficiency to meet the urgent demand for high-performance advanced materials in high-end fields such as aerospace.
