This article presents the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) to analysis  of the composite plate elements with cut-outs which can work as a spring element. The analysis were based on results from numerical approach. ANNs models have been developed utilizing the obtained numerical data to predict the composite plate’s flexural-torsional form of buckling as natural form for different cut-outs and angels configurations. The ANNs models were trained and tested using a large dataset, and their accuracy is evaluated using various statistical measures. The developed ANNs models demonstrated high accuracy in predicting the critical force and buckling form of thin-walled plates with different cut-out and fiber angels configurations under compression. The combination of numerical analyses with ANNs models provides a practical and efficient solution for evaluating the stability behaviour of composite plates with cut-outs, which can be useful for design optimization and structural monitoring in engineering applications.
