LLM-driven design of physics-constrained constitutive models: two agents are better than one

arXiv:2605.23754v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Developing constitutive models that capture how materials deform under load traditionally requires years of specialized expertise in continuum mechanics, machine learning, and scientific programming. Large language models (LLMs) have recently been shown to lower this barrier by generating constitutive models on demand, but existing single-agent pipelines lack systematic checks that the resulting models respect fundamental physical laws. To close this gap, we introduce the first multi-agent LLM-driven approach for constitutive model generation: a

Why this matters
Why now

The rapid advancement in Large Language Models (LLMs) combined with increasing computational power makes this multi-agent approach viable at this moment.

Why it’s important

This development addresses a critical limitation of single-agent LLMs by ensuring that AI-generated models adhere to fundamental physical laws, accelerating materials science and engineering.

What changes

The process of developing complex physics-constrained constitutive models can be significantly streamlined and validated, reducing dependency on years of specialized human expertise.
