Abstract

The integration of physics-based modelling and data-driven artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative paradigm in computational mechanics, This perspective reviews the development and current status of AI-empowered frameworks, including data-driven methods, physics-informed neural networks, and neural operators, While these approaches have demonstrated significant promise, challenges remain in terms of robustness, generalisation, and computational efficiency, We delineate four promising research directions: (1) Modular neural architectures inspired by traditional computational mechanics, (2) physics informed neural operators for resolution-invariant operator learning, (3) intelligent frameworks for multiphysics and multiscale biomechanics problems, and (4) structural optimisation strategies based on physics constraints and reinforcement learning, These directions represent a shift toward foundational frameworks that combine the strengths of physics and data, opening new avenues for the modelling, simulation, and optimisation of complex physical systems.
