Knowledge extraction and transfer in data-driven fracture mechanics.

ABSTRACT: Data-driven approaches promise to usher in a new phase of development in fracture mechanics, but very little is currently known about how data-driven knowledge extraction and transfer can be accomplished in this field. As in many other fields, data scarcity presents a major challenge for knowledge extraction, and knowledge transfer among different fracture problems remains largely unexplored. Here, a data-driven framework for knowledge extraction with rigorous metrics for accuracy assessments is proposed and demonstrated through a nontrivial linear elastic fracture mechanics problem encountered in small-scale toughness measurements. It is shown that a tailored active learning method enables accurate knowledge extraction even in a data-limited regime. The viability of knowledge transfer is
