Abstract Building integrated photovoltaics is a promising strategy for solar technology, in which luminescent concentrators (LSCs) stand out. Challenges include the development of materials sunlight harvesting and conversion, an iterative optimization process with several steps: synthesis, processing, structural optical characterizations before considering energy generation figures merit that requires prototype fabrication. Thus, simulation models provide valuable, cost-effective,...
Abstract Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is an emerging technology in the solar energy field.

Accurate material description is crucial to achieve high-quality results in computational analysis software. Phenomenological constitutive laws generalize the behaviour observed simple mechanical tests. The resulting empirical expressions contain parameters that need be calibrated through an inverse optimization process. Advancements Digital Image Correlation (DIC) techniques have enabled extraction of non-uniform multi-axial displacement fields, facilitating development heterogeneous...
Accurate numerical simulations require constitutive models capable of providing precise material data. Several calibration methodologies have been developed to improve the accuracy models. Nevertheless, a model’s performance is always constrained by its mathematical formulation. Machine learning (ML) techniques, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), potential overcome these limitations. use ML for modelling very recent and not fully explored. Difficulties related data requirements...
