hyper and probably over-prolific scientific authors (Nature article)

Submitted by Mike Ciavarella on

dear friends

Nature reported in Dec.2023 that up to four times more researchers pump out more than 60 papers a year than less than a decade ago. Saudi Arabia and Thailand saw the sharpest uptick in the number of such scientists over the past few years, according to a preprint posted on bioRxiv on 24 November.

MIT Short Course: Machine Learning for Materials Informatics (Jul 29 - Aug 2, 2024)

Submitted by Markus J. Buehler on

Dera iMechanica Community,

Below is information about a short course I will be offering at MIT this summer, in Live Virtual format: Machine Learning for Materials Informatics (Jul 29 - Aug 2, 2024).  This is an exciting opportunity that will cover fundamentals and applications in the emerging space of AI/ML for engineering, featuring hands-on interactive code development in Jupyter notebooks. We'll do a deep dive into all critical tools from autoencoders to graph neural nets to multimodal LLMs and multi-agent modeling. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.

Length scale insensitive phase-field fracture methodology for brittle and ductile materials

Submitted by mohsenzaeem on

Dear colleagues, I would like to share our new article (open access) that presents length scale insensitive phase-field fracture models for brittle and ductile fracture to address the deficiencies of the widely implemented models which over-estimate crack dissipation.
