In this study, 0.3 mm BDCK ultra-thin deep drawing steel was characterized by uniaxial tensile and Nakajima tests. The material exhibited weak in-plane anisotropy but pronounced through-thickness anisotropy, with an average <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">r</jats:italic> -value of 1.720. A hybrid experimental strategy was used to determine the necking forming limit curve and fracture forming limit curve from near-pure shear to balanced biaxial tension. The results show that localized necking and fracture act as competing failure limits, indicating that both limits should be evaluated within a unified framework. For necking prediction, an updated modified maximum force criterion model accounting for through-thickness anisotropy and shear-sensitive strain-path evolution was employed. For fracture prediction, the Hu-DFC criterion incorporating through-thickness anisotropy was adopted after comparison with DF2012. The framework was applied to a box-shaped deep drawing process. The predicted localized necking and fracture displacements showed relative errors of approximately 8.8% and 7.0%, respectively. The predicted critical region agreed with the experimental fracture location near the die shoulder radius.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"82 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149229880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, conventional structural health monitoring (SHM) methods often encounter implementation bottlenecks, primarily constrained by data labeling and the inherent discrepancy between numerical and physical responses. This study presents a novel digital twin-driven framework for structural damage identification using cross-domain feature adaptation. A residual network was trained on extensive simulated damage states, and the transfer learning was utilized to extract domain-invariant features across both numerical and experimental domains. This hybrid strategy integrates data-driven modeling and adaptive transfer learning to effectively bridge the gap in cross-domain generalization. An experimental study on a scaled experimental cable-stayed bridge was conducted to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed framework in mitigating domain-shift challenges. Notably, it achieves 90.9% accuracy with sparse training sets, while simultaneously yielding a significant decrease in computational overhead. By contrast, the target only training strategy and the partial transfer strategy without domain alignment achieved accuracies of 83.1% and 73.4%, respectively. In addition, comparisons with GoogLeNet and AlexNet networks further validate the superior performance and robustness of the proposed framework in cross-domain damage identification tasks.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
