Graph Neural Network Surrogates for Contacting Deformable Bodies with Necessary and Sufficient Contact Detection

  • 设计新架构,融合必要与充分接触判据,支持可变形体间复杂接触建模。
  • 在生物瓣膜等场景中实现千倍加速,推理速度显著提升。
  • 适用于几何变化场景,适合需要高精度力学仿真的工程领域。

针对力学中非线性边值问题的快速推断,代理模型在众多工程应用中具有重要意义。然而,涉及可变形体接触的高效代理建模,尤其是几何变化情况下的建模,仍是开放难题。现有方法多局限于刚体接触或刚-软体接触且接触面明确的情况,且仅采用必要但不充分的碰撞检测条件。本文提出一种图神经网络架构,首次结合连续碰撞检测与针对可变形体接触设计的充分条件。在两个基准任务上测试,包括预测生物瓣膜闭合状态的软组织力学问题。发现增加接触项到损失函数具有正则化作用,显著提升模型泛化能力,无论是在平面与法向角相似还是差异较大的复杂接触情形下均有效。同时验证了该框架对参考几何变化的适应性。但训练阶段计算开销较大,存在性能权衡。我们在多种硬件上量化了训练成本与推理加速效果,结果显示,在基准问题上推理速度最高可达千倍提升。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Surrogate models for the rapid inference of nonlinear boundary value problems in mechanics are helpful in a broad range of engineering applications. However, effective surrogate modeling of applications involving the contact of deformable bodies, especially in the context of varying geometries, is still an open issue. In particular, existing methods are confined to rigid body contact or, at best, contact between rigid and soft objects with well-defined contact planes. Furthermore, they employ contact or collision detection filters that serve as a rapid test but use only the necessary and not sufficient conditions for detection. In this work, we present a graph neural network architecture that utilizes continuous collision detection and, for the first time, incorporates sufficient conditions designed for contact between soft deformable bodies. We test its performance on two benchmarks, including a problem in soft tissue mechanics of predicting the closed state of a bioprosthetic aortic valve. We find a regularizing effect on adding additional contact terms to the loss function, leading to better generalization of the network. These benefits hold for simple contact at similar planes and element normal angles, and complex contact at differing planes and element normal angles. We also demonstrate that the framework can handle varying reference geometries. However, such benefits come with high computational costs during training, resulting in a trade-off that may not always be favorable. We quantify the training cost and the resulting inference speedups on various hardware architectures. Importantly, our graph neural network implementation results in up to a thousand-fold speedup for our benchmark problems at inference.
