Abstract

We propose a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) model called StressGAN for predicting 2D von Mises stress distributions in solid structures. The StressGAN model learns to generate stress distributions conditioned by geometries, loads, and boundary conditions through a two-player minimax game between two neural networks with no prior knowledge. By evaluating the generative network on two stress distribution datasets under multiple metrics, we demonstrate that our model can predict more accurate stress distributions than a baseline convolutional neural network model, given various and complex cases of geometries, loads, and boundary conditions.

StressGAN

Performance compared to the baseline

Run the code

Main Requirements

All the codes are tested in the following environment:

• Linux (tested on Ubuntu 16.04)
• Python 3.5
• PyTorch 1.0

Dataset

Our dataset are composed of configuration-von Mises stress pairs with mesh size of 128x128. The configurations are represented using 3 channels in the fashion of images, following Stress Field Prediction in Cantilevered Structures Using Convolutional Neural Networks.

Training

You could run the following command to train a model from scratch

python train.py \
--outf=path to output folder \
--dataRootTrain=path to training dataset \
--dataRootTest=path to testing dataset \

or restore from previous training where the path to optimizer and path to scheduler are optional:

python train.py \
--outf=path to output folder \
--dataRootTrain=path to training dataset \
--dataRootTest=path to testing dataset \
--Gmodel=path to generator \
--Dmodel=path to discriminator \
--Goptim=path to optimizer of generator \
--Doptim=path to optimizer of discriminator \
--Glrschl=path to scheduler of generator \
--Doptim=path to scheduler of discriminator \

Inference

To test a model, run the following command with --eval to test the loaded model on the testing dataset:

python train.py \
--outf=path to output folder \
--dataRootTrain=path to training dataset \
--dataRootTest=path to testing dataset \
--Gmodel=path to generator \
--Dmodel=path to discriminator \
--eval \

Output

For each experiment, the output infomation will be saved as following:

├── output folder
│   ├── model
│   │   ├── models & optimizers & schdular
│   ├── summary
│   │   ├── tensorboard
│   ├── configuration.json

The informaton will be stored based on global steps for training.
