contents Finite element modeling is a well-established tool for structural analysis, yet modeling complex structures often requires extensive pre-processing, significant analysis effort, and considerable time. This study addresses this challenge by introducing an innovative method for real-time prediction of structural static responses using DeepOnet which relies on a novel approach to physics-informed networks driven by structural balance laws. This approach offers the flexibility to accurately predict responses under various load classes and magnitudes. The trained DeepONet can generate solutions for the entire domain, within a fraction of a second. This capability effectively eliminates the need for extensive remodeling and analysis typically required for each new case in FE modeling. We apply the proposed method to two structures: a simple 2D beam structure and a comprehensive 3D model of a real bridge. To predict multiple variables with DeepONet, we utilize two strategies: a split branch/trunk and multiple DeepONets combined into a single DeepONet. In addition to data-driven training, we introduce a novel physics-informed training approaches. This method leverages structural stiffness matrices to enforce fundamental equilibrium and energy conservation principles, resulting in two novel physics-informed loss functions: energy conservation and static equilibrium using the Schur complement. We use various combinations of loss functions to achieve an error rate of less than 5% with significantly reduced training time. This study shows that DeepONet, enhanced with hybrid loss functions, can accurately and efficiently predict displacements and rotations at each mesh point, with reduced training time.
