用物理约束提升地震响应预测精度与速度

Accurate and efficient seismic response prediction is essential for the design of resilient structures. While the Finite Element Method (FEM) remains the standard for nonlinear seismic analysis, its high computational demands limit its scalability and real-time applicability. Recent developments in deep learning - particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models - have shown promise in reducing the computational cost of the nonlinear seismic analysis of structures. However, these data-driven models often struggle to generalize and capture the underlying physics, leading to reduced reliability. We propose a novel Physics-Informed U-Net-LSTM framework that integrates physical laws with deep learning to enhance both accuracy and efficiency. The proposed 1D U-Net captures the underlying latent features of the long-term input sequences. By embedding domain-specific constraints into the learning process, the proposed model achieves improved predictive performance over conventional Machine Learning (ML) architectures. This approach bridges the gap between purely data-driven methods and physics-based modeling, offering a robust and computationally efficient alternative for predicting the seismic response of structures.
