During the curing process of composites, the temperature history heavily determines the evolutions of the field of degree of cure as well as the residual stress, which will further influence the mechanical properties of composite, thus it is important to simulate the real temperature history to optimize the curing process of composites. Since thermochemical analysis using Finite Element (FE) simulations requires heavy computational loads and data-driven approaches suffer from the complexity of highdimensional mapping. This paper proposes a Residual Fourier Neural Operator (ResFNO) to establish the direct high-dimensional mapping from any given cure cycle to the corresponding temperature histories. By integrating domain knowledge into a time-resolution independent parameterized neural network, the mapping between cure cycles to temperature histories can be learned using limited number of labelled data. Besides, a novel Fourier residual mapping is designed based on mode decomposition to accelerate the training and boost the performance significantly. Several cases are carried out to evaluate the superior performance and generalizability of the proposed method comprehensively.
