contents Predicting the stress-strain behaviors of additively manufactured materials is crucial for part qualification in additive manufacturing (AM). Conventional physics-based constitutive models often oversimplify material properties, while data-driven machine learning (ML) models often lack physical consistency and interpretability. To address these issues, we propose a physics-informed machine learning (PIML) framework to improve the predictive performance and physical consistency for predicting the stress-strain curves of additively manufactured polymers and metals. A polynomial regression model is used to predict the yield point from AM process parameters, then stress-strain curves are segmented into elastic and plastic regions. Two long short-term memory (LSTM) models are trained to predict two regions separately. For the elastic region, Hooke's law is embedded into the LSTM model for both polymer and metal. For the plastic region, Voce hardening law and Hollomon's law are embedded into the LSTM model for polymer and metal, respectively. The loss-based and activation-based PIML architectures are developed by embedding the physical laws into the loss and activation functions, respectively. The performance of the two PIML architectures are compared with two LSTM-based ML models, three additional ML models, and a physics-based constitutive model. These models are built on experimental data collected from two additively manufactured polymers (i.e., Nylon and carbon fiber-acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) and two additively manufactured metals (i.e., AlSi10Mg and Ti6Al4V). Experimental results demonstrate that two PIML architectures consistently outperform the other models. The segmental predictive model with activation-based PIML architecture achieves the lowest MAPE of 10.46+/-0.81% and the highest R^2 of 0.82+/-0.05 arocss four datasets.
