Description
Summary:In order to identify the magnetic properties of magnetic steel, the synergy between the data arising from the experimental activity, an FE model, and the use of a multi-fidelity surrogate could relieve the burden of the total cost. A neural network, with as many outputs as fidelity levels, is adopted in quality of metamodel to describe the forward problem [forward neural network (FNN)]. FNN is trained using multiple losses aiming at getting a robust surrogate that is poorly sensitive to the chosen norm. This makes it bi-objective optimal since several error metrics are simultaneously minimized. In addition, a conjugate, inverse net (INN CJ ) is built, which is a ready-to-use tool for inverse properties identification, since no optimization runs are required. Its performances are compared to those obtained with a transfer learning-based approach (INN TR ) and a single-fidelity inverse neural network (INN SF ). Finally, a real B - H curve identification task has been solved, thereby validating the conjugate inverse net.
