Deep learning for the rare-event rational design of 3D printed multi-material mechanical metamaterials

Multi-material 3D printing techniques are now enabling the rational design of metamaterials with both complex geometries and multiple materials compositions. Here, deep-learning methods are used to identify, among planar network structures, the rare designs that yield very unusual and desirable comb...
