arXiv:2606. 12025v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Finite element (FE) modeling of safety-critical infrastructure such as bridge barriers requires high-fidelity nonlinear dynamic analysis, yet the current FE modeling process remains labor-intensive and lacks automation.
arXiv:2606. 12040v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The design of reinforced concrete highway barriers is a safety-critical process that requires strict compliance with regulatory provisions such as the AASHTO-LRFD bridge design guidelines.
arXiv:2606. 00138v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Finite element analysis (FEA) is the most important numerical approach for solid mechanics.
arXiv:2602. 07083v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Structural modeling is a fundamental component of computational engineering science, in which even minor physical inconsistencies or specification violations may invalidate downstream simulations.
arXiv:2606. 17577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI-driven engineering workflows face particular challenges in crash safety design: unlike aerodynamics, crash events involve highly nonlinear contact dynamics, material nonlinearity, and discrete state transitions that are difficult to capture with data-driven surrogate models.
arXiv:2510. 12985v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present SENTINEL, a framework for formally evaluating the physical safety of foundation model (FM)-based embodied agents.
arXiv:2606. 10928v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models can reduce the manual effort required to set up finite element simulations, but they introduce reliability risks when generated solver code lies on the critical path.
arXiv:2608. 15591v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents deployed in production environments face a fundamental tension: the agent's behavior is frozen at deployment time, while the business rules and edge cases it must handle continue to evolve.
arXiv:2607. 14896v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Addressing a structural-engineering request requires more than a single answer; it requires a chain of interdependent artifacts: interpreted requirements, a computable model, validation records, solver outputs, code-check records, and a final report.
arXiv:2508. 19186v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reactive obstacle avoidance methods often cause agents to become trapped in local minima, because they can often only reason one step ahead (i.
arXiv:2606. 27611v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Operations Research (OR) provides a rigorous framework for high-stakes decision-making, but effective OR modeling requires substantial domain knowledge, mathematical abstraction, and solver expertise.
arXiv:2608. 03600v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Partial differential equations (PDEs) become actionable in science and engineering not as isolated formulae, but as executable workflows that connect modelling assumptions, governing equations, numerical solvers, diagnostics, and decisions.
arXiv:2608. 15881v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE) is an open-source finite-element framework for building multiphysics simulation applications.
