In this work, we present the physics-informed neural network (PINN) model applied particularly to dynamic problems in solid mechanics. We focus on forward and inverse problems. Particularly, we show how a PINN model can be used efficiently for material identification in a dynamic setting. In this work, we assume linear continuum elasticity. We show results for two-dimensional (2D) plane strain problem and then we proceed to apply the same techniques for a three-dimensional (3D) problem. As for the training data we use the solution based on the finite element method. We rigorously show that PINN models are accurate, robust and computationally efficient, especially as a surrogate model for material identification problems. Also, we employ state-of-the-art techniques from the PINN literature which are an improvement to the vanilla implementation of PINN. Based on our results, we believe that the framework we have developed can be readily adapted to computational platforms for solving multiple dynamic problems in solid mechanics.
