The production process metadata, such as thermal and optical measurements, enables a higher degree of property grading than uninstrumented manufacturing and feedback for fault detection. This study explores how metadata can design fatigue-resistant structures using physically grounded models such as density functional theory, cyclic plasticity, and fracture mechanics that train machine learning algorithms. Machine learning models work very eﬃcientlyin their trained physical space. In comparison, mechanistic models are computationally costly for complex phenomena such as fatigue. We show how fatigue can be administered consistently at all scales by energy-based criteria and how a mechanistic function can be built based on this concept. The energy mechanistic function allows exact quantiﬁcation of the eﬀect of the existing ﬂaws from manufacturing on fatigue lifetime under certain load boundary conditions. Since the mechanistic function is local and subscale to the prediction scale of the machine learning model, it can be used to build density functions for probabilistic regression of the fatigue property on the scale above. The analysis is applied to the selective laser melting process due to the availability of digital control and metadata generation during deposition. |  |\n\n1. Introduction  \nThere are beneﬁts to additive manufacturing (AM) over conventional subtractive manufacturing methods, but more structural qualiﬁcation is needed for technical alloys’ cyclic deformation and fatigue characteristics. Increasing high-cycle fatigue resistance in metallic materials under cyclic loads is essential for structurally demanding applications. Often, eﬀorts to improve fatigue damage resistance using traditional strengthening methods and hierarchical nanostructural alterations are unsuccessful. However, physics-based methods appearing in the recent literature promise signiﬁcant breakthroughs when coupled with high throughput machine learning and digital twinning techniques. In pure Cu, low-angle dislocation barriers are introduced at the nanoscale, improving tensile strength and fatigue limit. The increased fatigue life results from the high density of built-in low-angle dislocation cells, which reduces surface roughening and crack initiation [1].  \nThe fatigue life of materials with minor ﬂaws was estimated when subjected to multiple loads, and a notch factor and Murakami crite-  \n* Corresponding author.
