摘要

In naval engineering, understanding underwater explosions is crucial for structural integrity and safety, particularly for combat ships. Coupled numerical analyses, which account for fluid-structure interaction (FSI), are accurate but computationally expensive and impractical for real-time applications. In contrast, uncoupled methods are efficient but overlook FSI effects. This study introduces a data-driven approach using a feedforward Deep Neural Network (DNN) to estimate FSI-induced displacements from uncoupled simulations. Trained on numerical datasets of blast-loaded plates with varying characteristics, the DNN predicts the coupled displacement field based on structural parameters of uncoupled simulations. Results demonstrate that this framework provides a fast and reliable alternative to coupled simulations, offering a practical engineering tool for underwater blast scenarios. This work serves as proof of concept that deep-learning-enhanced uncoupled simulations can replace coupled ones, with validity beyond the specific structure in the case study.
