arXiv:2608. 09296v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A CAD model is not engineering-grade merely because it looks correct.
arXiv:2609.13152v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) perform strongly on static science benchmarks, yet their ability to reason about the physical world through active experim...
arXiv:2605. 28579v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have recently advanced text-driven 3D generation, yet Text-to-CAD remains far from supporting industrial product design.
arXiv:2605. 10873v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recovering editable CAD programs from images or 3D observations is central to AI-assisted design, but progress is difficult to measure because existing evaluations are fragmented across datasets, modalities, and metrics.
arXiv:2608. 14615v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) perform well on established code-generation and mathematical-reasoning benchmarks, but their capabilities in mechanics and spatial geometry, here denoted as mechanical engineering awareness, has not been quantified systematically.
MechReason is a new benchmark for multi-image, multi-hop reasoning in mechanical engineering, featuring 12,000 question-answer pairs with explicit reasoning chains and 21,000 visual items across nine evidence types. It covers eight task types—explanation, prediction, design, and diagnosis—within four reasoning dimensions, and is constructed through a four-stage pipeline that extracts engineering claims, generates verification-masked questions, and validates multimodal quality. Even state‑of‑the‑art models score only 62.89% on this dataset, highlighting its difficulty.
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:2606. 05445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We dream of AI agents that can read arbitrary designs and construct real-world objects from reusable building blocks.
arXiv:2608.28884v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce MineCEraft (Minecraft Construction Engineering Benchmark, pronounced mine-see-ee-raft), an easy-to-use, open-source benchmark designed to...
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:2607. 05573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) enable the automatic generation of parametric 3D designs from natural-language specifications.
arXiv:2606. 10833v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) demonstrate strong performance on general multimodal reasoning benchmarks, yet their ability to perform engineering reasoning remains largely unexplored.
