A computational homogenization of heterogeneous solids is presented based on the data-driven approach for both linear and nonlinear elastic responses. Within the Double-Scale Finite Element Method (FE2) framework, a data-driven model is proposed to substitute the micro-level Finite Element (FE) simulations to reduce computational costs in multiscale simulations. The heterogeneity of porous solids at the micro-level is considered in various material properties and geometrical attributes. For material properties, elastic constants, which are Lame’s coefficients, are subjected to be heterogeneous in the linear elastic responses. For geometrical features, different numbers, sizes, and locations of voids are considered to reflect the heterogeneity of porous solids. A database for homogenized microstructural responses is constructed from a series of micro-level FE simulations, and machine learning is used to train and test our proposed model. In particular, four geometrical descriptors are designed, based on N-probability and lineal-path functions, to clearly reflect the geometrical heterogeneity of various microstructures. This study indicates that a simple deep neural networks model can capture diverse microstructural heterogeneous responses well when given proper input sources, including the geometrical descriptors, are considered to establish a computational data-driven homogenization scheme.
