Tackling multiphysics problems via finite element-guided physics-informed operator learning
This work presents a finite element-guided physics-informed operator learning framework for multiphysics problems with coupled partial differential equations (PDEs) on arbitrary domains. The proposed framework learns an operator from the input space to the solution space with a weighted residual formulation based on the finite element method, enabling discretization-independent prediction beyond the training resolution without relying on labeled simulation data. The present framework for multiphysics problems is implemented in Folax, a JAX-based operator learning platform, and is verified on nonlinear coupled thermo-mechanical problems. Two- and three-dimensional representative volume elements with varying heterogeneous microstructures, and a close-to-reality industrial casting example under varying boundary conditions are investigated as the example problems. We investigate the potential of several neural operators combined with the proposed finite element-guided approach, including Fourier neural operators (FNOs), deep operator networks (DeepONets), and a newly proposed implicit finite operator learning (iFOL) approach based on conditional neural fields. The results demonstrate that FNOs yield highly accurate solution operators on regular domains, where the global features can be efficiently learned in the spectral domain, and iFOL offers efficient parametric operator learning capabilities for complex and irregular geometries. Furthermore, studies on training strategies, network decomposition, and training sample quality reveal that a monolithic training strategy using a single network is sufficient for accurate predictions, while training sample quality strongly influences performance. Overall, the present approach highlights the potential of physics-informed operator learning with a finite element-based loss as a unified and scalable approach for coupled multiphysics simulations.
