Driven by the demonstrated success of machine learning (ML) in many scientific domains and the demands to efficiently handle a wide spectrum of data types, sources, and dimensions, ML and data-driven techniques have become pervasive throughout the computational physics and mechanics literature. The ability of ML models to approximate functions, solve differential equations, a analyze high-dimensional data, and handle repetitive tasks, have made them an attractive option to augment or replace existing paradigms for computational mechanics. However, unlike the conventional modeling and simulation tools where interpretability and compatibility of known physics principles are guaranteed, machine learning techniques for mechanics and multiscale modeling can be difficult to interpret, difficult to train, and the learned models may violate physics principles, such as invariance and equivariance, and therefore are not always trustworthy for high-consequence engineering applications. This special issue welcomes novel contributions that measurably advance the state-of-the-art in engineering mechanics.
