Abstract:
This study investigates the modelling of constitutive laws of materials by neural networks. Material behaviour is no longer represented mathematically but is described by neuronal modelling. The main aim is to build a neural network directly from experimental results (the learning phase). We give several examples of constitutive laws (Hooke, Sargin, etc.) using a backpropagation algorithm. Then we show that abilities of adjustment, memorisation and anticipation of neural networks permit us to develop a method of classification of constitutive laws.

In contrast, nonlinear systems do not inherently possess these properties. However, for small deviations around an operating point, a nonlinear system can often be approximated as linear.

Classification of Systems-I
Homogeneity dictates that if an input x(t) is multiplied by a constant c, the output y(t) is multiplied by the same constant. Mathematically, this is expressed as:
