A solid-shell model of hard-magnetic soft materials

Hard-magnetic soft materials (HMSMs) consisting of an elastomer matrix filled with high remnant magnetic particles can exhibit flexible programmability and rapid shape changing under non-contact activation, showing promising potential applications in soft robotics, biomedical devices and flexible electronics. Precise predictions of large deformations of hard-magnetic soft materials would be a key for relevant applications.

Just talking to another mechanician...

Dear Zhigang,

As of this writing, none of the Twitter (now called `X' or `x', you know best) accounts I follow have gone against me. Or, the Chinese either, for that matter.

Just noting, for the time being,

Just the way, you know, I could've left a PhD program (that one because I already had had an MTech from IIT Madras), and joined American Industry,

or,

Deep-learning model using a small dataset

One the main challenges of developing data-driven models is the data-hungry nature of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). In our recent paper, we introduced a data augmentation approach to expand a small original dataset without conducting extra expensive high-fidelity simulations. We then used the original and augmented datasets for developing ANN models for non-linear path dependent composites. The obtained results showed the great impact of the data augmentation approach on the accuracy of the data-driven models.

Applied Mechanics Division Student Competition

The ASME AMD Division sponsors the Applied Mechanics Division Student Competition in Track 7 and Track 12, generously funded by the Haythornthwaite Foundation. Full-time students working on a project, thesis, or dissertation that is at a readiness for presentation at IMECE are encouraged to apply.
