  1. We present hybrid data-driven approach to model multi-physical process in fluid-infiltrating porous media across length scales. Unlike single-physical problems where data-driven model is often used as a replacement of the solid constitutive law, a hydro-mechanical problem often leads to more complex hierarchical relations among physical quantities which in return complicate the design of the data-driven solver. When artificial neural network is used, additional issues may arise when constraints and rules, such as material frame indifference, cannot be explicitly enforced without artificially expanding the training dataset. In this work, we introduce a component-based strategy in which a multiphysical problem is viewed as a directed graph, a network consisting of inter-connected vertices representing physical quantities. This strategy enables modelers to couple data-driven model with conventional math-ematical expression methods by considering different hierarchical relations among data. Depending on the availability of data, hybridization of data-driven and mathematical models may take different forms. To enforce material frame indifference efficiently, we employ spectral decomposition to handle the invariant and spin terms via Lie algebra.
